Frequency of Continental Championships

Frequency of Continental ChampionshipsAt the recent IAU Executive Council meeting it was also decided to bring the Continental Championships as a regular fixture on our calendar.

As we alternate, between the 24 Hour and 100km World Championships, we will have continental championships. So if we have the 24 Hour World Championship in one year, we will have 100km continental championships, in our respective areas the same year (and vice versa).

This will allow the athletes to maintain their form in non-world championship year and also allow our continental LOCs to prepare for a future world championship bid.

Bids for the continental championships and future world championships 2016 and on will open soon.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
