Sinnemahone 50K Offering Prize for Participant Traveling Farthest

Running or hiking the 50K through Cameron County in October may seem daunting, but this month the organizers of the Sinnemahone 50K upped the ante!  The participant that travels the farthest to participate in the event will be given a free registration for the inaugural 50K. 

 Registration closes in September and organizers say they are excited about the number that have committed to the grueling 10 hour event.  The race on Saturday October 19 will begin on the West Creek Rails to Trails in the center of Emporium and continue to the Buttonwood Motel and Restaurant, up the mountain and follow DCNR trails to the Emporium Country Club and return using more trails along the Bucktail Path. 

 f the 50K is too ambitious participants can register as a two person relay, and there is the opportunity to complete a 25K shorter race.  More information can be found at http://www.phdispatch.com/sinnemahone-ultra-marathon/ or by calling the chamber office at 814-486-4314.
