INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ULTRARUNNERS
Dear ultramarathon friends,
The IAU Executive Council is glad to announce the following
important decisions they made this weekend during their
annual meeting in Monaco.
1. The IAU 24H WORLD CHALLENGE 2008 will be staged
in the OLYMPIC PARK OF SEOUL (KOR) during the second part of
October.
2. The IAU TRAIL WORLD CHALLENGE 2008 has been assigned
again to the organisers of the SUNMART 50 MILE RACE IN
HUNTSVILLE (TX)- USA, on 6 OR 13 DECEMBER 2008.
3. This year there will be no IAU EUROPEAN
CHAMPIONSHIP 24H.
4. No IAU 50K TROPHYneither in 2008 because with
the 24HWC (Oct.), 100KWC (Nov.) and the TRAILWC (Dec.) the
IAU calendar is already overloaded.
5. The Council agreed with the proposition of the
introduction of WILDCARDS for their MIAUC’s 100K and 24H (See
IAU website one of the next days)
6. The DEADLINE for the official appication for
organising one of our Major IAU Competitions for 2009 is set
on 31 MARCH 2008! These MIAUC’s are: WC and EC 100K 2009, WC
and EC 24H 2009, WC Trail 2009 and the Final Race of the IAU
50K Trophy 2009.
