FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

      XTERRA to Honor Sally Meyerhoff at Trail Run World Championship 

   2011 Hawaii event to be run in memory of 2010 women's world champion;

The 2011 XTERRA Trail Run World Championship on Sunday, December 4 will be 
run in memory of women's world champion Sally Meyerhoff.

More than 1,500 runners from around the world will participate in the event 
at Kualoa Ranch, Hawaii, and each runner will wear a special race bib with 
the name "Sally" in the background.

Meyerhoff won the women's division of the 2010 XTERRA Trail Run World 
Championship at Kualoa Ranch, setting a women's course record of 1 hour, 28 
minutes, 58 seconds, over the 21K course.

Just three months after winning that race, Meyerhoff's life ended 
tragically on March 8, 2011. She was killed in a cycling accident in her 
hometown of Maricopa, Ariz. while training for the Ironman World 
Championship.

In addition to the special race bibs, Meyerhoff will be remembered during a 
moment of silence prior to this year's race at Kualoa Ranch.
