I hope you were lucky enough to get out on the trails over the last couple of days. I got in 60 miles over two days on the driest trails we have had in a long time. Saturday the H.U.R.T. course was in awesome shape. Had the race been run over the last two days,…
If information about the trail I’m about to describe s supposed to be secretive, any of the Tantalus veterans out there should feel free to pull this off the blog. I don’t want to spill any inadvertently spill any beans. If not, read on…. Yesterday, I went out on the trails with the intention of…
Aloha Athletes ! Great athlete and Hurtpal Darin Mingo almost was able to sneak by all the fanfare and complete the Kona Ironman unnoticed by all his friends at HURT. This may have been because Darin was slightly ahead of all the other HURT runners and posted the great finishing time of 11:21:08 !! Congratulations…
I have been busy with many other projects however one frustration has been solved. Bloglet subscription service has been very unpredictable and unstable. Customer service or support was non-existent so I am happy to announce a replacement service, FeedBlitz. I became aware of FeedBlitz through Denise Wakeman (Build a Better Blog) and appreciate her locating…
We are occasionlly having problems with the subscription service we use for the www.hurthawaii.com blog. I am trying to monitor this and correct the issue. Remember you can always access the blog by using the blog address (www.hurthawaii.com) in your web browser. Aloha, Bob

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.
