Anyone interested in a few hours (6) tonight (Fri) and you are not planning to do the awesome Peacock 100K, feel free to join me. Leaving around 6PM from Maunawili Falls Trail and heading over to Manoa Falls – back. It will be dark and we'll likely encounter the ghost tours! Bring typical trail supplies…
Essentials: Meet at the Dillingham Airfield Parking Lot at 7:00 AM on Saturday 10/22 for a brief light run and some trail marking, followed by a Pot Luck. Gordon has asked me to post a request for volunteers to mark the Peacock trail this Saturday Morning. We will be dividing up into groups and heading…

There will be a small group of runners that will be doing something very unusual (for HURT runners) this Saturday morning. We’ll be doing something called a “taper” run. That’s pronounced, táy-pər, and it means to reduce gradually. I know it sounds like a crazy idea NOT to go out and run beyond the point…
Hi, In preparation for the UTAT next week I generated approximate track and waypoint files to have in my gps device in case of emergency. If you'd like to see the course, download either the .gpx or .kml files from here and open them in goodle earth – select the track and then hit the play button…
Somewhere around 6:30 to 7:00AM at the airfield. 5:00AM at Long Road. If you are doing the full loop do a stash at long road. Bring water, nutrition and essentials for yourself for a full loop. Don't be cute and go it alone unless you know where you are going, or think a marker on…
Aloha all: I hope your training for the Peacock 100k is going well. I think Gordon may have been one of those people who interrogated prisoners by using waterboarding and other questionable means, then decided that wasn't enough torture and came up with this route.Since AJ did such a wonderful job with the HURT 100…
Another Saturday option… A small group of us will be running the top secret trails above the North Shore surf breaks again this weekend. So if you trashed yourself last weekend (like I did), and would enjoy a slightly less punishing run this weekend (like I would), so you can trash yourself again next weekend…
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.
