Hello, I am wondering if there are any willing pacers for the 2011 Hurt100 around? I was slotted in as a replacement this week and as such my pacers can't travel on short notice. I am an average runner looking at a 32-34 hour finish-and looking for whatever help may present itself:) You can respond…

100K over three HURT loops. 5:00PM November 12th  to 3:00PM November 13th,2010  Ask and you shall receive is the old saying. It must have been  the Oahu trail gods being talked about because they proved quite bountiful in their provision of rain, and mud; the Kane god of mud Kanekelekelekalepo being particularly plenteous.  If this…

Aloha Athletes ! Lately, Saturday Training has been a lot like "Gravy All Over"…different starting times, different starting places, which is the "way it is"…everyone has different schedules and lives in different areas of our beautiful island. This Saturday we will continue with our traditional HURT 100 training venue: 6:00 am at the end of…

Aloha Athletes ! "Same song…another verse"…Manoa to Jackass repeats…6 am at the end of Manoa Rd. By the way, there is someone who I forgot to thank for helping-out at the Peacock 54…Larry Inouye ! Larry is the very important person who gets permission to use the airfield facility for the race. No permission…no race….

Aloha Athletes ! With the very tough Peacock 54 behind us it's time to start serious HURT 100 training. This Saturday will be the first of many Saturday training runs over the next two months starting at 6 am at the end of Manoa Rd., and going to Jackass Ginger, and returning. Repeats are the…

Aloha athletes ! From everything we've heard, the 2010 Peacock 54 was a success, and if that's true, the success was totally due to the volunteers and the runners. The volunteers were the best ! Although someone's name will be missed, and I apologize, let's start with Rob Lahoe…what can I say???…Rob, we couldn't have…

Aloha Athletes ! Just talked with our good friend and "ultrarunning legend in her own time" Monica Scholz who was preparing for a flight to Arizona to do the Javelina Jundred, which will be her 22nd 100 mile finish for 2010 and her 108th 100 mile finish, total. I don't call her "The Ultimate Super Chick"…

Aloha Athletes ! This Saturday 10-23-10 is the 3rd running of one of the toughest 54 mile trail races anywhere…the Peacock 54 ! Gordon has marked the course, the Coke and Mountain Dew are ready and the weather report says sunny, so plan for "hot". It should be a fun day ! The gate will…

Aloha Athletes, Hey if you are not doing the Peacock 54 or going to Maui for XTERRA this next weekend, here is the perfect race. Christian Friis has asked if we could help promote this.  "We will have our usual College race next Saturday, October 23, 2010, at Kualoa Ranch… We had to move the start…

Thank you, for the inspiration.  Thursday night, I knocked out a 50km run, from Waipahu up to Schofield Barracks and up Kolekole pass, before heading home.  I would not have even considered it without having spent the year reading your tales and talking story at the events and random encounters out there on the trails. …

Even for the trail/ultra die-hards out there who shun the roads and any distance less than a 100 miles, you have to watch the last 3 minutes of today's Chicago Marathon.  Entered in the race were no less than 4 guys who had PR's in the 2:05's, all between the ages of 20-23.  Wanjiru, the…
