Spreading the Aloha
Aloha Athletes ! One of the many nice things about the ultrarunning community is opening their homes, condos and apartments to runners from far away, especially during races. Most any of us that have traveled to the mainland or to Canada have been offered a place to stay during 100 mile races. I've personally known…
Break-Ins at the Nature Center Again!!!
Last Thursday, Cheryl and Rex parked in the lower pkg lot at Nature Center for a run. When they returned, Rex's back car window had been broken, and his backpack with all his school books were stolen! Replacing the books will be expensive, but the time lost, and expense to replace his window are big!…

Absolutely No Question of Toughness
Aloha Athletes ! I'm sure by now that all of you have already read both Mike and Devon's race reports and hopefully understand how very tough the race conditions were on Saturday's Peacock 54, but even after all that, I still have doubts that you understand how tough it was to finish the damn thing….
Peacock 54: Devon’s Back
Well my day started at 0100 after not being able to sleep. I drank about 6 cups of coffee and gorged on some food. My wife and kids drove me to the start and we got there at 0500. After helping set up I payed my $10 entry fee, went to the bathroom, and then…
A Blow-out in the Mud-out. A Hawaiian god Returns.
‘Disgustingly Phenomenal’ is what I was mumbling repeatedly to the guys in the lead of yesterday’s Peacock 54. To give you an idea of how phenomenal I am talking about, just so you don’t think I’m misusing the word—I had taken a few yard slide along the ridge trail and was washing the mud off…
