]]> Takes Auburn by Storm!

April 26-27: 25K, 50K, 50-miles, 100 Miles

The City of Auburn greeted the UTMB Race Organizers from Chamonix France with open arms for 2+ days of running Ultra Running trail events and festivities. Downtown Auburn was closed off and store owners to advantage of the incredible influx of runners, spectators, friends and families to boost their weekend sales. The 3-day Expo was nonstop busy, being the location of the runner’s race packet pick-up, and the Endurance Capital Committee with their handsome pop-up tent made sure that everyone was well aware of the history and validation of Auburn’s Endurance Capital of the World™ status!

					On Feb. 16, 2019, Shannon Weil of Cool CA, just outside Auburn, CA, was inducted into the Sacramento Running Association's Hall of Fame due to her tremendous contributions to the Western States Endurance Run, the Tevis Cup 100-Mile in One Day Equestrian Ride, and the Western States Trail Foundation. Her vision, energy, and passion were huge factors in launching the sport of ultra distance running back in the 1970s. It has since become one of the fastest growing running sports in the world, and this in turn has spawned a whole new genre of nutrition, gear, travel, and medical support industries.
