What runners should know about HURT 100, in brief, from the official race website.
Schedule and packet pickup
Runner bag pickup and the pre-race briefing are on Friday, January 15, 2027 at Ke'ehi Lagoon Memorial. The race starts at 6:00 a.m. Saturday and closes at 6:00 p.m. Sunday. The awards banquet is Monday, January 18, back at Ke'ehi Lagoon.
Course
Five partial out and back laps, almost all single track, with roots, rocks, mud and 20 stream crossings. Elevation runs from 300 to 1,900 feet. Aid stations sit at Makiki (start and finish), Manoa at Paradise Park, and Nuuanu at the Judd Trail trailhead, each visited five times.
Parking and travel
Parking at Makiki is tight. Each runner gets one pass for the Halau Ku Mana school lot, and cars may also park fully off the road on Makiki Heights Drive. No vehicles are allowed above the green gate; runners and crews walk up the Arboretum Trail.
Awards
Every finisher receives a belt buckle at the finish line. A $500 prize goes to anyone who sets a new course record in their division.
Rules and FAQ
Entrants must be 18 or older and show a finish of 50 miles or more within the cutoffs; virtual runs, FKTs and fat ass events do not count. Each entrant also owes eight hours of volunteer trail work. The race is cupless, and runners carry their own gels and supplements.
