I know this blog is for posts about ultrarunning, and I think winning two back-to-back races in the same weekend must somehow qualify. This is Matt's wife, Lesley, and I just wanted to share some pictures and stories of Matt's exceptional weekend. I'm super proud of him! We went over to Maui for our third…
This past weekend, me and a couple of buddies made a run up the Poamoho Hele Loa and the Poamoho Ridge Trail. Permit was required, and we had permit in hand. We'd looked at having some friend be our support, to meet us at the end of the Hele Loa and run the last part,…

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.
