Hello All



I have been getting a lot of e-mails about the

12 Hours of Willamette Pass Cross Country



The race is August 21st 8am-8pm



There are a number of classes to pick from,

solo, two and four person teams.



The pass is a great place for this race...there are

some nice trails around the resort to use and the

lodge is great for hosting the event.



The same day there will be a Ultra Trail run event

going on at the same time but of other trails...The

Where's Waldo? run is a 100K trail run that cover 3

peaks...it is the Cascade Cream Puff 100 of trail

races.



It should be a really great race for people of ALL

skill levels. The goal is to see all kinds of people

and teams out there... four people beginner teams to

teams of all Pro/Elite racers...all women teams...solo

beginners see what they can do to Pro's trying to get

as many laps as they can and get faster each lap.



The goal is to have a great fun race for everyone and

in the next 2 years or so make this into a race where

you can race 12 or 24 hours! We want to make sure we

have this multi hour race thing nailed down before

moving onto a 24 hour race, but if all goes well it

will happen in next couple years.



You can camp at Willamette Pass in the parking lot or

off in the tree's...the Forest Service charges

Willamette Pass for every overnight camping spot, but

it is small fee. The lodge is open from 7am-10pm with

food, rest rooms and other stuff. They have gondala's

on in place of ski chairs in the Summer and it is

great ride and the veiw is awesome if you get a chance

to take it...the passes cost $12 to ride all day.



You can download a flyer at www.obra.org, I can mail

you a flyer and you should get one with your OBRA

number...I will be at all the races with flyers for

this and other events.



So mark your calendars now!



Please let me know if you have any questions



Thanks

Randy
