The Leadville Trail 100 races are now accepting entries for 2010. New for this year there will only be online registration including the Leadville 100 mountain bike race. The 100 mile mountain bike race will cost you more in 2010 whether or not you get picked in the lottery.
That’s right, you’ll pay $15 just to enter the 100 mile mountain bike lottery. Also the entry fee is going up $25 to $275. I doubt that’ll keep them from getting record entries after so many people saw the Race Across the Sky movie. Hopefully I’ll make the lottery so I can line up and attempt to get my 6th finish.
As in the past, the 100 mile mountain bike entry deadline is January 31st but the deadline is 5 PM. The strategy of entering with a group that I mention in my post on the entry lottery won’t work this year since there are no longer group entries. The other events have deadlines close to race date if the race isn’t full.
New for this year will be a 12/24 hour race Labor Day weekend. There was talk of having it last year but it got postponed. It’s been a while since I’ve raced 24 hours solo so maybe if I’m fit I’ll give it a try.

I won't even try to get in this year. Almost $300 for a one-day race is just too steep for me. And $15 even if you don't get accepted? That's f—in' ridiculous.
