Top of Tantalus--First H.U.R.T. Trail Series Race is Saturday
Aloha Athletes!
This Saturday, April 12th is the first race in the H.U.R.T. Trail Series. Race Directors Rex Vlcek and Kat Tagaca are expecting a large turnout. Please consider riding with a friend since parking is limited. The great news though is that the road is open this year, so we can take the shorter drive to the race start.
Rex and Kat are still looking to confirm some help at the aid stations and for picking up after the race. If you can help out please contact them immediately.
OK, here's the details:
Top of Tantalus 7.0 mile, April 12, 2008 7:00 a.m.
Start: Pu'u’Ulaka’a State Park
Finish: Pu’u’Ulaka’a State Park
For information: Rex Vlcek 497-7415, vlcekr@hawaii.rr.com
Or Kat Tagaca 956-0913, ktagaca@hawaii.edu
Remember for all trail series races, there is no pre-registration or early sign-ups. Just show up race morning at least 30 minutes prior to race start time, pay the entry fee ($10), and be ready to run. Since this is the first race, you can pre-pay for the entire series ($60) and get a savings of $10 over the seven races.

If you have any questions contact Rex or Kat.

Aloha All !
I'll try to answer the previously posted unanswered questions. We supposedly have a limited supply of last years' HURT Trail Series shirts. Pj will be bringing them. They will be $20 each. Gobble them up fast, as they will be gone quick.
Aloha ! Don

The race starts at 7:00 a.m. Can't answer you on the shirts. Maybe Don or someone will jump in with an answer.

Two questions: What time does the race start, and is there a 2008 trail series t-shirt available?
