On the heels of hosting three XTERRA trail running national championships and two USA Track & Field trail running national championships over a three year period, Bend, Oregon has been picked to host the 2011 Half-Marathon and 50k Trail Running National Championships.
Bend played host to both events in 2010. The executive committee for USA Track & Field voted at their annual meeting in Virginia Beach, V.A. to once again choose Bend as the destination for 2011.
