It's the final count down. The HURT Run For George World Championship is this Saturday, May 26. Start time is 7:00 AM at the Sunset Beach Elementary School. Please arrive by 6:30 for registration and race briefing.
Remember, this event has no entry fee. It is donation only. 100% of all donations will go directly to our buddy George Ramos who is battling cancer, to help with his medical expenses. We suggest a $10 donation, but more is better and less is OK.
This is a fast and fun course. We're expecting a BIG turn out, so get ready to have some fun!
Trophies for the top three men and top three women! Limited edition tee shirts for the first 50 finishers!! Plus other fun prizes!
Pot Luck at the finish so bring a dish or just bring your appetite.
The trails are in impeccable shape, not a pine needle out of place!
Please park in the lower school parking lot, or on Kam Hwy, or at Ehukai Beach Park directly across the street. Please DO NOT park in the upper parking lot as there will be a farmers market there and we don't want to ruffle any feathers.
There will be an aid station (water only) at Lilikoi Junction, but we still recommend carrying your own water. You will pass Lilikoi Junction twice, first at around 4.5 miles and then again at around 7 miles. There will be ripe strawberry guavas growing along the course that are delicious!
Please tell all your friends, we really want to have a big turn out for this special event!
There will be a "walking option", which will be a two mile out and back course. Walkers will not be timed.

See you Saturday.

I think there's a penalty fee for getting lost...and it's high!

Steve:
Your bookies must have been talking about another Doug, not me for sure. I agree with Jeff! Besides, I have a feeling I'm going to get lost on the course with that maze of trails up there.

Doug, I called a bookie in Las Vegas and he said they're giving even odds on you winning this thing!!
It's going to be awesome! We're expecting a huge turn out. Can't wait!
