“Skyrunning – back in the USA!”

What absolute impeccable timing with this announcement:

Announcing the welcome return of skyrunning in the USA with a four-race Merrell Skyrunner® USA Series alongside a US stage on the Merrell Skyrunner® World Series – already announced in December.

On the same day as GTWS announces their calendar of events leaving the US entirely, skyrunning swoops in and announces its US National Series.

And no, I am not just patting myself on my own shoulder here, I had nothing to do with the timing of all this. But also:

The Beast of Big Creek will play a double role hosting the only US stop of the Merrell Skyrunner® World Series and the Merrell Skyrunner® USA Series.

All there’s left to do is book your trip to the Olympic Peninsula and come race with us this summer. Let’s go!
