UPDATED Steve finished in 9:40. Gil about 10:30. Congratulations to both of you!! We look forward to hearing more about it. I've heard from Cheryl a couple of times and it seems the saying, "We wouldn't want it to be easy!" certainly applies to Ultraman. On day 1, during the swim Gil was stung by…
The Nuuanu stash has been replenished. There are now 7 gallons of water and 3 gallons of sports drink out there. I didn't add snacks since there's plenty left. Although I bumped into some hardy runners who will most likely take a bite out of our supplies tonight… Happy trails!

Gil Loomis and Steve Dewald don't have to worry about wearing off their Thanksgiving dinner or the extra calories from that second piece of pumpkin pie. In fact, they might eat a third piece. They also don't have to worry about the long lines and traffic around the malls on Black Friday. It's not that…

New Suspect in Sports Doping Is, No Joke, Viagrahttp://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/23/sports/23viagra.html
With this weekend's predicted big rain, I was not sure what to expect for a Saturday training session. All week I had debated what to do–see there was a 12 hour MTB race out at Kualoa Ranch from Noon to Midnight scheduled too. I told Barbi if I was going to do anything for 12…
I have dropped out of the challenge. After 20 days my stats are: 234 miles, 44,954 calories burned, and 59 hours 29 minutes ran. The reason for my dropping out of the challenge was I woke up this morning with pain in my hamstring and knee. I went to the doctor and they took an x-ray…

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.
