Judy looked so strong and I knew she would have a great run. She kept saying that she may decide to run with us, but I kept telling her to take off and that I would stay with Rex. She ran her fastest 100 ever – super! Rex was awesome – honest! He was…
There I was wrestling the ferocious Dogbear to the ground; “save yourself” I told Bob, if I don’t catch up with you, tell them that I would have finished this time. Ok it wasn’t quite like that. But, as we were working our way toward the Rice Lake 81.5mile turn around, before the lip incident,…
We are all waiting to congratulate Rex in person on finishing his first 100 mile run this past weekend. These pictures will have to suffice for now. Of course we all know there is a lot more to tell than these five photos reveal. Hopefully Rex will provide a race report so we can get…

Brutally tough!! But oh so much fun. We climbed and climbed and climbed. I remember on the last real climb up to 3000 ft I thought I was lost and then a 50 mile guy passed me by and I said thanks I thought I was lost and he said onI think on this course…
We got word this morning from Wisconsin that Rex Vlcek, Judy Carluccio, and Bob Murphy have all finished the Kettle Moraine 100 mile run. John Salmonson talked with him for about 15 minutes. Rex finished with Bob at his side in 27:51! The poison sumac got to him and his lip is about 4 times…
The Quintessential Trail Run of the Year is Just ONE week away. It’s the Marvelous Mangos! This is just a reminder, not that anyone who runs doesn’t already have it marked on their calendar, that the hottest race of the season is set to start at the Makiki Heights Water Tank Park at 7:00…

Instead, most of the Western States gang will be meeting at Cheryl's house in Enchanted Lakes at 6:00 am, heading over to Waimanalo (6:40 am), and taking the Maunawili Trail to Pali Lookout…
Four HURT runners experienced a wonderful long Memorial Day weekend running on the trails of the Western States 100 as participants in the 2009 training camp. They were Gil Loomis, Rod Huddleston, Sarah McIntosh, and Marian Yasuda. It was a great three days of running getting to know the course and fine tuning for the…
Aloha Athletes ! If you are new to visiting this site or new to running with the H.U.R.T. group, you might begin to think Peacock is the only place we run. That is not true. It's just that right now with several runners training for races on the mainland, it is a great place to…

HURT enjoys the privilege of partnerships with State and Federal agencies that hold the responsibility of protecting Oʻahu public lands. Those partnerships are based upon mutual trust and cooperation and shared concerns for the ʻaina. To keep that trust and continue to be provided the opportunity to host trail events, we (HURT) must understand and abide by rules that govern our partner agencies.
HURT does organize and facilitate official trail maintenance only when coordination with our partners has occurred. All trail work is performed under the supervision of a permitted individual with advance permissions. Some trails are off-limits for HURT to perform trail maintenance due to the sensitive flora. No HURT trail maintenance will occur outside of these parameters.
HURT and its partner agencies require that no self-directed trail maintenance occur on publicly-owned trails. Any individuals performing trail work outside of official HURT-organized events, are doing so on their own accord and will be held personally responsible by State and Federal agencies for any violations. Such activity could jeopardize our relationships with partner agencies and lead to inability to use public lands for our events.
