We have probably all been glued to CNN this past week and each of us has been touched in some way by what we have seen in the aftermath of the devastation and heartbreak caused by Katrina. Roger Wrublik (a HURT Veteran and finisher) has organized a relief effort in support of Dr. Tyler Curiel….
I just want to thank everyone who came out to support and run in Sunday’s training run. It was a beautiful day on the trails and lots of runners (See below for the some of the names) took advantage to get out on the trails. First, thanks to Don Fallis and Cheryl Loomis (and their…
Just wanted to say thanks to Kelly Hupp for a great job a few weeks ago with the Keiki triathlon. My kids have done most of the races for the past few years and I gotta say this was the best race yet. It was well oranized and run as well as a safe venue…
This past Saturday, several of us showed up at 6:00 a.m. to run a H.U.R.T. loop. It was wet and muddy throughout the course (Ugh!), however the sun was out and there was a really good breeze blowing. We had two guests join us, both of whom had not met each other, even though they…
Two other H.U.R.T. runners were MIA (missing in action) from this past weekend’s Mango Madness race. Their where-abouts have now been confirmed. Marian and Neal Yasuda were in San Diego running in the Rock and Roll Marathon. This is a big race with over 17,000 finishers. Marian ran a 3:53 and Neal’s time was 4:07….

Becky Gifford completed her first ultra recently, the McDonald Forest 50K. For those who don’t know, Becky is the wife of Jamie, 2005 H.U.R.T. 100 mile winner. Glenn Tachiyama took the following photo of Becky and Jamie. Congratulations to Becky on her accomplishment.
From John and PJ For those that don’t know “Marathon John”, he is a great friend to HURT. Before he left Hawaii 4-5 years ago, he did an enormous amount of work for our races, and contributed equipment that we still use in our races today. For instance, one year at the Schofeild 50 Miler,…
Nick Kaiser submitted a few more pictures from this past weekend’s run. These photo’s show some of the H.U.R.T. "character’s" at their finest! Click on the photo’s to enlarge them. Here’s race director’s Cheryl and Don, eating all the aid station food. In this photo (notice their expressions and body language), Ed and Don are…
Just wanted to make sure you all are checking the Recent Comments section on the left side of the blog. Paul Sibley has posted a couple of them as he departs on his run in Spain.
I placed a new link under Ultra Links on the right hand side of the blog for Sam Musleh’s site: ultraBlog.us He has also placed a link for our blog on his site. Currently there is a good race report on his site from this past weekend’s Massanutten race writen by David Bursler.
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.
