With the 2010 event just around the corner, I am trying to remember all the lessons learned (and promptly forgotten) in the past couple of years. What comes out as critical for me is not the elusive 60-mile training run in December, or even the right shoes – my #1 concern is nutrition. So here…
It looks like we'll be having internet connections at the aid stations during this years' HURT 100. Because of this, we should be able to get onto Google Docs and have instant runner updates available on the web foro anyone wanting to take a look. Also, I'm planning on setting up a webcam over at…
I know that many of you are very focused on January 16 and I wish all HURT 100 entrants the best in their upcoming race. Recently, I have had several inquiries regarding the 2010 Sweetheart's South Loop, and I have decided to post information now so that folks are able to fit this FUN event…

Jeff Fong hits the tape at 3:26!! Congratulations and well done! The Hawaii Field follows:
Well, we are almost within the 30 days to Race mark and approaching that period of time when many will be speaking of cool-down, wind-down, recoup, rest time, recovery, and a great many other descriptors of training avoidance. To celebrate this impending milestone a few runners will be heading out to do the Final 60 miler (Three HURT…

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.
