Kahanu Loves To Run

Aloha e ka 'ohana FB For those who know Kahanu, they know he loves to run and is the happiest and most engaged when he does. Since the first 3 day Makahiki Run here on Moku o Keawe my keiki have run the Punalu'u to Miloli'i leg and jumped in along the route to Honoka'a. This past year Kahanu continued on and ran with the group from Maka'eo in Kona to Kawaihae and up to Honoka'a. He hasn't stopped asking when the next run will be since. The Universe heard his heart and he was blessed with an invitation to participate in the 3 day Pit River Ancestral Run this August in California!! The Pit River Ancestral Run is a 3 day Run. They meet at their camping site at Medicine lake Wednesday night and start the run Thursday morning. They'll run Thursday, Friday and then run Saturday to their final main camp at Lassen where they have ceremonies, dances and food late into the night -1am sometimes. We are trying to raise monies to fly him there, and on his wish list is a Go Pro to document and record these amazing memories, a good pair of shoes for trail running and a camel pack to hold water while he runs. Getting our keiki active and connected to the 'aina and ultimately themselves is such a beautiful thing. It gives them hope and a deeper understanding of how connected to the earth and each other here and with our relations away we are. Any monies raised will be used solely for his trip and things he may need. If you are moved to donate and would rather avoid any fees so that 100% of your donation can be used, you can send it to:
