Lake Sonoma 50 Cancelled!

March 29, 2011 By: John Blue Category: Trails, Ultrarunning

This just in from the Lake Sonoma 50 Race Director:

Due to flooding and unsafe stream crossings, the 4th Annual Lake Sonoma 50, scheduled for Saturday, April 2, has been cancelled.

Registered entrants were sent an email yesterday afternoon, announcing the cancellation and offering a partial refund, priority entry into next year’s race, and a few spots in next weekend’s AR 50.

The stream crossing at Warm Springs Creek (mile 12 and 38) is currently at least 8 feet deep and about 80 yards across with a swift current in the middle.

I don’t know about you, but I’m looking forward to this season being behind us!

   I think Geoff Roes was supposed to race this one. To bad. Maybe he’ll get entry into AR50. Spice things up a bit.

   My second race cancellation in three weeks. However I found the response and details offered by the RD much more professional than my last email cancellation notice.
