Due to irreconcilable scheduling conflicts, the CanAm High Performance
Distance Circuit will be on hiatus for the 2003 season.
However, eastern Canada and the northeastern U.S will still provide six
excellent high performance opportunities during the traditional CanAm Circuit
timespan of late June/early July.

The organizers are working now to ensure the return of the CanAm High
Performance Distance Circuit for the 2004 season.
The CanAm
High Performance Distance Circuit was
developed in 1998 to provide low-cost
high-performance competition
opportunities for North America's elite
and emerging elite middle-distance and
distance runners during the summer months
following the national championship
meets.
The meets
are well-organized and provided optimal
conditions to run fast distance times
while keeping the costs down.
Over the past five years, the CanAm Circuit
has become the summer destination of choice for North American
distance runners.
