Germany’s Only Mountain 100 Mile Race Folds

From the organizers of the Chiemgauer100:

Many reasons play a role, but above all the high organizational effort and the declining number of participants. The strong competition of many, partly at the same time of other running events, finally made us make this difficult decision.

Germany is a big country to not have a classic 100 Mile race, so this comes as quite a shock, especially in the light of seemingly endless expansion in our sport.
