2010 H.U.R.T. 100 Final Reminders

Aloha Runners,

Are you folks ready for the "Run(ble) in the Jungle"? As your race volunteers put on the finishing touches to what promises to be a very exciting weekend we would like to remind you of the following:

We will be using Succeed Ultra as your electrolyte drink at the event.

The runner check in will begin Friday at 3:30 p.m. We will likely be there earlier if you would like to grab your race bag. You are encouraged to bring a chair to the brief.

Monday night banquet tickets will be sold at the pre race brief for $40.00 each. This will be the only time we are selling the tickets.

Do not bring drop bags to pre race brief. Bring your drop bags on race morning and place them in the appropriate place ( sites to be labeled)

Please remind your crew that while we love their enthusiasm we don't want to see them at the first aid station at Paradise Park in Manoa. We need to get our volunteers in there so they can set up for you folks.

Speaking of crews please have them print their own maps from this site prior to heading out. Unlike the past we will not have any available on Friday afternoon.

We are working diligently to provide runner tracking throughout the event. We will post a link to this blog when that is finalized.

On race morning you are required to check in once again. We will have a table set up. This is a mandatory check in, we need to know who is out on the trail.

Pre / race and post race we need volunteers to mark/ pull down trail marking ribbon. Please contact trail marking coordinator Don  

During the event we hope you take the time to thank the volunteers who have put forth a great deal of time and energy into this event so that you all might have memories that will last a lifetime.

We look forward to seeing you all. As we sit here typing this the clouds have opened up and the rain has begun. It must be time for the H.U.R.T. 100 again.

Much aloha, and safe travels.

Jeff, John, and PJ

Updated H.U.R.T. 100 Post Race Banquet

Aloha Runners,

We will be having the H.U.R.T. 100 Mile Run post race banquet on January 18th, 2010 beginning at 5:30 p.m. at the Mid Pacific Country Club. The address to the country club is 266 Kaelepule Drive, Kailua, Hi., 96734 (808) 262-8161. A map link will be posted later to this site.

The cost for the buffet event will be $40.00 per person (cash is preferred over check). Unlike past events we will be selling banquet tickets at the check in on Friday afternoon. Space to the event is limited to 200, therefore you will need to purchase your ticket on Friday afternoon at the pre race brief. There will be no walk up sales at the event itself.  We need to go this route so that we have an accurate count for the banquet coordinators.

Good Luck with your taper.

John, Jeff, and PJ

Pacers For H.U.R.T. 100

Aloha Runners,

We just wanted to reach out and inform you all, that as discussed in the race booklet pacers are hard to find at HURT. If you are in need of one, we recommend that you arrange your own as race management will not be able to do so this year.

Aloha,

H.U.R.T. 100 Team

I'm back on the mainland but I wanted to point out to the blog that David Carlsson not only completed 100k at HURT but a week later placed 'first' in the Hilo to Volcano run in case you guys didn't know.  Great work for a guy who a month ago was just trying to get under 3 hours at Honolulu Marathon (and he did).  I'm pretty sure this is the same guy (last name misspelled in Big Dog's results) as I talked to him before the race and he is the only David in the finishers.  He was camping near Akaka Falls and said ran into the New Mexico HURT runners.

I was still sore and could barely stay ahead of the Cowman though it was nice to have a course with only a few banyan roots in the first ½ mile.
