Electric Cable Car is part of Trail Tracks Network.
Just a month until the new Skyrunner USA National Series kicks off. Four incredible races invite you to touch the sky: Whiteface Skyrace, Beast of Big Creek, Skeetawk Skyline Scramble, Kismet Cliff Run.
US Skyrunning Team is raising money via a crowdfunding platform:
The US Skyrunning Team will be traveling to Spain in September 2024 for the World Skyrunning Championships.
Our fundraising goal is to cover as many costs for the athletes on the team as possible.
A few of these costs include: team kits ($1,500), accommodations/race fees during the championships ($3,000), team meals ($1500), and as much of the athlete travel costs as possible.The US will be sending 12 athletes to the Skyrunning World Championships this year. This will be the largest US team ever for the SWC.
Kinda goes to show how small our sport still is, of US national teams need to raise money in this fashion. I mean, they are only looking to raise $15K, couldn’t (insert big brand name here) just write a check?
