The long standing half and full Iron distance Silverman race held each year in Nevada has been cancelled for 2011. The statement below was recently posted on Silverman's facebook page:
"Happy belated Thanksgiving everyone! We're crawling out of our turkey fog and wanted to update you all on our 2011 Silverman plans. We have made the difficult decision NOT to hold the Silverman half or full distance next year and focus our efforts on a successful ITU event. We are thankful for your continued support an...d hope to see you racing or volunteering in 2011!"
As you may recall from THIS story the 2011 ITU Long Distance Triathlon World Championships will be held in Henderson, Nev., USA, on Nov. 5, 2011.
