Welcome to the 2000 USA National 100 km Championship!  In addition to serving as the 100 km championship, the race raises money for children suffering from cystic fibrosis.

2. Press "RELOAD" often, especially if you are returning to your computer from your morning run (some of us don't get that luxury today).

As you might be aware, the top three men and top three women finishers from today's competition are automatically selected to the US 100 km National team, provided they meet the qualifying standard of 7:45:00 for the men and 9:00:00 for the women.  They will be competing in the IAU international 100 km challenge in the Netherlands this September.  Because funding for ultra distance competition is limited, they are required to spend their personal money to travel and represent the US in competition.

To help generate funds for distribution to all the members of the National Team, Ultrafit has made USA Ultrarunning apparel available for purchase.  All proceeds will go to defray the travel expenses of our National Team members.  We are currently working on getting the apparel items on-line for purchase.

Regional USA Ultra Challenge Results

The top 3 men and top 2 women from each region count in scoring.  The US has been divided into four regions: West, Central, South, and East for scoring purposes.  The scoring is based on overall finish place, with the men's and women's field being combined for scoring puropes.  Scoring is based in the tradition of cross country, so the region with the low score will be declared the champion.  Teams must score a full field to be declared the winner.
