I went to run/trek around Annapurna for a couple of weeks earlier in the month to kick off my HURT training. I was initially looking into various ultras and stage-races in the area which take place at this time of year, but the fees are high so I thought I would just go and explore…
Hello, I am wondering if there are any willing pacers for the 2011 Hurt100 around? I was slotted in as a replacement this week and as such my pacers can't travel on short notice. I am an average runner looking at a 32-34 hour finish-and looking for whatever help may present itself:) You can respond…
100K over three HURT loops. 5:00PM November 12th to 3:00PM November 13th,2010 Ask and you shall receive is the old saying. It must have been the Oahu trail gods being talked about because they proved quite bountiful in their provision of rain, and mud; the Kane god of mud Kanekelekelekalepo being particularly plenteous. If this…

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.
