The first-ever XTERRA was held here in the magic isles in 1996 with only 123 competitors.
Now there are tens of thousands of athletes taking part in the fun with a global series that boasts more than 100 races in 17 countries on every continent except Antarctica. The 12th annual XTERRA World Championship is the final race of this international series and dishes out $125,000 in prize money to the world's best athletes.
On Sunday, October 26th, a maxed-out field of 550 racers will embrace the challenge of XTERRA's most grueling course - and in the ensuing hours put their mental and physical toughness up against Mother Nature's arsenal of sun, sand, water, kiawe, and lava.
All the action will be filmed for a one-hour TV special, and you can log-on right here for complete race coverage including streaming video, in-depth feature stories, photo galleries, and live updates from the race.
