XTERRA is meant to be extreme….And you will remember our race summary – www.marchadventureracing.com/the-march-explains-maui/ – describing the offshore swim as being perfectly positioned to catch the barreling big surf waves that roll in to the northern coast of Maui….Well, it just got a whole lot more extreme!
A tsunami warning has been issued & the athletes have been evacuated from their hotel!! Richard Ussher is presently camped out on higher ground in a car! And remember it’s GMT -10 hours, which means that is how they are spending their last night pre 9am race start Sunday!
You can follow the race – assuming they can safely start it (the clear priority must be safety) – by GPS athlete tracking, iPhone tracking & online streamed race video here –
