The fast crowds have some good night runs planned for Friday-Saturday and I urge all those who are in the sub-six category to get out and join Paul et.al. for a good night run experience. Paul is famous for…

After getting stuffed on Thursday, please come out and join me for a 40 miler. Regardless of your pace and distance, safety in numbers! Plan for wind, rain and whine. Hope to have the barista working at JG to keep the mood and feet moving. Will have glowsticks at the resupply to light the night…
Aloha Athletes ! In addition to multiple training venues on the HURT 100 course, several of us are venturing out to the Peacock Flats area this Saturday for some different views and terrain.

If you plan your training day with at least a HURT loop, more for the faster runners, that should put you Johnny-on-the-Spot to…
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.
