Trail Races in Hawaii: The 8 Races Worth Training For
Hawaii racing is tropical mountain running: the HURT 100 climbs through Oahu's Makiki, Manoa, and Nuuanu valleys, the Hawaii Kai Ultra Run works the ridgelines above Honolulu, and the Peacock Challenge runs through the Kuaokala Forest Reserve near Waialua. Expect steep, muddy, root-covered singletrack and heavy humidity year round.
