LaSportiva Mountain Cup Series

For those of my friends in the south or those who can travel to the venues, the calendar for the 2010 edition of the LaSportiva Mountain Cup Series has been finalised. Hey, with $25000 in prize money on top of all the fun you'll have, what's not to love? This race series features a variety of events, locations and distances, including many that showcase mountain running in the European tradition, which is typically challenging terrain with a lot of vertical over a relatively short distance. Or was that "nasty, brutish, and short"?
