Howzit,

I was at Waikoloa this weekend and ran around the grounds. I hit sand, coral, lava, concrete, steps, hills all different kinds of stuff. The coral and sand section appears to be the end of the race for lavaman. If you are doing the race be prepared for that last section. Sure it is harder than some other running but you will get through it and it doesn't last forever. Watch your ankles and just keep moving. Don't let that last section catch you off guard.

That is all. Have a good one and good luck.

I would love to do Lavaman, but I had to choose between that and Honu...and since Honu is longer and has more qualifying spots, my choice was made.  Good luck to you though. 

Are you still doing the Kalapana/Leilani loop?  I've been doing it about once a week w/ rides to volcanco and Kamuela mixed in the last couple weeks.  Be care w/ all the lava viewing traffic out there now. 

See you out there!
