Aloha Athletes, OK, if you are entered into the HURT 100 this year, as of today (Wednesday), you have 44 days left before race day. That means you should have some good long training days in the bank already and a few more scheduled. Some look at total miles or trying to get in 30-40…
Aloha Athletes, OK, it is crucial training time for HURT 100 runners. Time to run off that turkey, pie and all those other calories. This Saturday, HURT loop (and more???) starting at the Nature Center at 6:00 a.m. Anyone is welcome to join in as you can always run as much or as little as…
Aloha Athletes, Wake up from the food coma yet? Out fighting the crowds all night at Black Friday Shopping? Remember that if you are planning on running in the St. Louis trail run tomorrow, to send an email by 6PM to holidaytrailhawaii@gmail.com. For logistical purposes, sign up the morning of the run will be limited. Aloha,…
Aloha Athletes, Informal Training Series We felt that we were missing some informal runs during the winter months – so welcome to the Post Holiday Trail Series. First run is this Saturday (11-24) at St. Louis Hts., all runs are short, and followed by a refreshment table ($10 donation recommended). Also in common for all runs, is…
For another training option, you are welcome to join me for a night loop. Leaving from Manoa / Paradise Park last bus stop by 6:00pm. Option to get water from Nature Center for last leg back. Plan on a comfortable 6-hr pace. I would enjoy the company for some or all. Aloha – Paul (808-497-3911)

eh! isn't it funny when you move to another part of the world, HURT runners just popup everywhere! I've been on the east coast for 11 months now, and out of blue, I reconnected with Dan E, long time HURT and ultra runner that I knew in Hawaii, FOUR years ago!!! we did 2009 Run…
Aloha Athletes, Instead of coming up with something different I am suggesting you get out and support Mike in what he has planned for the weekend. Many of you need to get some night training in, testing lights and your own ability to stay awake at night and this is the perfect opportunity. I'd love…
On Friday November 9, health permitting, I, Mikem, will be heading out on another birthday run. Last year I let the Peacock 100K function the dual purpose of race and birthday run. This year’s Tsunami edition limits my ability to revisit that artifice, and I find myself forced to actually run a birthday run, which…
All: Everything "found" at the Peacock race has been left at Runners-Hi. If you lost something, please check there. If you still can't find it, it's probably been sacrificed to the trail gods. If you still haven't received a finishers visor or t-shirt, please e-mail me. I'll try to get everything sent out this week if possible….
Aloha Athletes, With Peacock behind us, it is time to look ahead. For many, it is time to start thinking HURT 100. Of course not everyone that reads this site or comes here for running opportunities is entered into the HURT 100. Others out there might be focused on the Xterra Trail World Championships at…
Aloha Athletes, 2012 Peacock 100k Results 2012 Peacock 50k Results We’d like to congratulate everyone who toed the line this weekend. This is a very difficult race, and most of you trained extremely hard. Unfortunately, we had to make some very hard decisions in a very short span of time. I hope all of the runners we…
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.
