It's always hard when one of the members of our Ohana departs. Today we bid farewell to yet another of our Ohana departing for the mainland (Boulder, Colorado then Reno, Nevada) to further pursue her career. 'Happy Trails' was a good road and trail runner, excellent archaeologist, and an overall great friend to all who knew her. She'll be sorely missed as the H.U.R.T. season kicks off in April, especially by 'Superwoman' (aka Former Maniac Groupie) makes bid to do her first trail season and this editor as he prepares to (re-)train to go for the H.U.R.T. 100(miler) in January 2009, those she 'sagged' for at H2V, as well as various others whom she ran and conversed with.
So what did we do as our last day together....run...the trails!!!! A group of us ran the ol' Tantalus Triple Trek route (at least part of one circuit) and just enjoyed the morning being together, away from the pounding of the road and in the solitude of nature.
Good luck 'Happy Trails', the entire Runners' HI Ohana wish you the safest of journeys and to stay in touch! Guess this means we'll be expanding our borders and places to go (run)! Aloha!
