Subject: Switzerland trail running race

Hello,

The Fourmile Watershed Coalition and Fire District are working with InMotion Running Store and Joe Grant from Gold Hill to plan a running race on Sept 22, 2019.  The race will be a 5K, 1/2 Marathon and 50K (and possibly a kids race).  The 5K is around Dixon Rd in Gold Hill.  1/2 Marathon is Gold Hill to Sunset and 50K is Gold Hill to North Switz, down to Sunset, up Penn Gulch and back to Gold Hill through Sugarloaf and Sunset Switzerland Trail.  Start and finish are at the Gold Hill Inn.  Most participants will be bussed up the mountain. Map attached.

We are working with a professional race planner who is an Australian Olympic runner.  He is donating his time (this year) for race planning.  All funds raised will go to a collective “Forest Restoration Fund” to be used for forest health and fire mitigation projects to be determined by the 4 fire districts.

We are requesting assistance from the fire districts to provide medical volunteers at strategic locations and aid stations.  We would also like HAMM radio operators where communication is difficult.  More planning and coordination to come.  Just wanted to let you know about the date so that you can start discussing with your volunteers.

Thanks, Maya
