Hilo to Volcano Ultra Marathon

The beginning of 2010 brings an exciting running event to the Hilo side of the Big Island. For those hearty runners who are looking to go a little longer than your typical 5K, the Big Island Road Runners present the Hilo to Volcano 31 mile (50K) Ultra Marathon and Relay on January 23, 2010. At 6 a.m., individual runners completing the entire distance will depart from Coconut Island in Hilo. At 6:30 a.m., the relay participants will start at the same location. The runners will travel from Coconut Island to the Cooper Center in Volcano. Each relay team will consist of 3 runners and all runners must provide their own support vehicles. Additional questions can be directed to Gregory Lum Ho at 808-987-5224.

The cost for the race is $30 and entries must be postmarked by January 8, 2010.

Good luck to all participants!
