Way to go to all HR team members for giving it their all today at one of the toughest Roughwater swims in years.
I am proud of all of you that towed the line today for this challenging swim. Also, big congrats to folks that finished under the cutoff today. It was a really strong current this year.

Vi's Adventure Trek & Run
(Click on image to enlarge)
Attached is the application for VI's Adventure Trek & Run. This fun event is in honor of
Vi Jones-Medusky who has ALS.
Most of you know Vi from her many years of tri training. (Her daughter is Malia Jones) (Pomai works with her husband) (Wanda Kakugawa is her cousin) I had the pleasure of meeting Vi while in Bali with Pomai. She is a energetic positive person whom is very knowledgable about endurance training. We talked for a quite a while about it. I am amazed at her accomplishments in the Triathlon world. She is a inspiring person!
This event will benefit MDA of Hawaii.
Please consider supporting this cause if your schedule allows as I know I will.

Stephanie Lum & Peter Hursty Compete in the 2008 Molokai to Oahu Paddleboard Race
Peter competed in his first but not last I'm sure, Molokai to Oahu Paddleboard race.
The conditions were challenging to say the least. WIth high seas, choppy conditions and the usual steady trades it was a challenge even for the expierenced paddlers. Some of the folks that did well last year had a tough time this year.
Peter competed in the stock division and finished the race in 7 hrs. & 10 minutes. This was after not being able to start with the field as his support boat arrived late. Peter didn't let this stop him as slowly started picking off his other competitors along the way. He was having a grand ole time to somewhere off of China Walls where things got really tough. But he hung in there and finished strong! Had he not started late he would have been sub 7 hrs for sure!
There was also a Stand Up Paddle Board division that a fellow HR Swim clinic (Stephanie Lum) team member competed in. She was part of a four person Celebrity relay team. There were three Celebrity teams that finished and I'm not sure which one she was on to list a time. Sorry! I have a short attention span! :)
Congrats goes out to both you! Great Job!

Pics from our trip!
The pics start with our flight from Honolulu on a small 6 seater airplane piloted in part by Peter. You'll see Honolulu, Waikiki and the east side of Oahu from the Air. Then our landing on Molokai at a private airstrip (video on you tube). The house we stayed at on Molokai (SWEET PLACE!) The pics from the day before the race followed by race day pics. Enjoy!

Video is from our take off from Honolulu. Flight over Oahu and the Kaiiwi (sp) channel. Then our landing in Molokai on a private grass airstrip! It was awesome! What an adventure! Can't wait for next years race!
There are five videos so far from our trip. Waiting for Peter's.
