The organizers described canceling the 2026 edition as a difficult decision because interest was insufficient. They apologized for the disruption and said they were working on a better date for 2027.

Perspective: event staff; this affiliated account is not an independent participant review. An affiliated assessment of the organizers’ own cancellation decision, rather than a participant review or held-race account. Refunds were promised in the same notice; delivery is not independently verified. The old June 2026 header does not show that the race occurred, and no 2027 date is confirmed.
