The IsarRun will not be held again according to the website and has posted a message that translates:

IsarRun 2008 and the future:

In the next, as well as in subsequent years, there will be no more IsarRun.
Unfortunately, we are from many different reasons forced the IsarRun no longer on it too.
In this way, says the organization again, many thanks to all sponsors, the communities Plattling, Dingolfing, Freising and Scharnitz, all helpers and other supporters.
