Just a quick update. I finished the San Diego 100 Mile Endurance Run this weekend in 28:07. Pushed the last 20 miles, but ran pretty conservatively throughout since I have Cascade Crest coming up in August (what was I thinking!?). My friend Rachel, who I ran with for much of the race, finished her first…
Hello, We will be visiting the Big Island in early August this year, only a few weeks before the Leadville 100 Trail Run that I'll be competing in again this year. I'd like to squeeze in a 20-mile trail run while in Hawaii, but I don't know the trails and there seem to be no…
This is what Lisa and Sister Mary Beth looked like at the end of their 44th day of the Running Hope Through America (RHTA) project. Smiles on their faces and a feeling of accomplishment. What I am learning about these two amazing women is that they are true givers. The reason they are doing this…

How would you like to wake up each day knowing you are going to get up and run 50 miles? Can you imagine? How would you handle that? What would your body feel like? Think about it. Each day you get up and you run 50 miles. Then you eat, sleep, get up and do…

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.
