Det er ved at udvikle sig til en farce omkring IAU´s tildeling af værtsskaber til VM både på 100 km og 24 timer. Endnu en gang er et mesterskab blevet aflyst med kort tids varsel. 3½ måned betyder, at landsholdsløbere er i fuld gang med målrettet træning, og så bliver ballonen punkteret.
24 Hour World Championships (Pilzen cancelled but IAU in discussions with Soochow)
It is with regret that we announce that the previously announced 24 Hour World Championships in Pilzen have been cancelled.
The LOC had financial difficulties and were unable to secure funding before our deadlines. However, we have started discussions with Soochow University in Taiwan for the 24 Hours this year. It is with regret that we announce that the previously announced 24 Hour World Championships in Pilzen have been cancelled.
The LOC in Taiwan is very excited for this opportunity and have started prepartion on their end to confirm the bid and work on the documents. The discussions are going well and we will confirm with you as soon as we hear from the LOC keeping in mind the urgency of this decision.
