All, Not many people are capable of accomplishing things that legends are made of. Yet, Stud Muffin Murphy (SMM), (Bob to most of us) is on the precipice of accomplishing such a feat. The details: 1.) SMM completed his 500th mile at HURT in 2006 with a 100 mile finish. 2.) SMM recently completed the…
All, WOW. Words cannot begin to explain the sheer beauty witnessed out on the Tahoe Rim Trail (TRT). Although I failed miserably in my personal quest at bagging my 10th 100 mile finish, I return to the islands fulfilled by the experience. Making the beauty of this course more special was seeing local girl Stephanie…

aloha guys and gals, slight switch for Sunday’s run: in order to avoid wasted time in cars, we are going to meet at Maunawili Park, do Olo Mana’s 3 peaks, go through the irrigation tunnel of death and then proceed back to the hairpin turn and then back to the cars. This will be a…

Aloha everybody, I know this ain’t running, but this past weekend, my friend Ken, at the age of 60 years young, completed a life dream by paddling solo across the Ka’iwi Channel. After six and a half hours, unending 15 foot seas and having a big tiger shark cruise his kayak, he pushed beyond his…

Hello all! I live over on your neighbor island of Kauai and am anxiously anticipating the Run to the Sun. With many triathlons under my belt (Ironman distance and down), I’d like to consider myself an endurance junkie but this will be my first ultra running event -and I am stoked. I wish I had…
aloha everybody, Congrats to everybody on a great HURT 100 race, both to runners, vol’s, etc. Jeff Huff and I were discussing a possible training weekend on Maui after the Run to the Sun.

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.
