Re: Corona Virus - IM Switzerland (Thun) thread [paxfobiscum]
I am registered for the France MaxiRace ultra trail race at the end of May in Annecy. My wife and I are now looking at other options for a vacation in the U.S. during that time period.

Obviously it's too early to make a final decision, but I'm already considering the scenario where there are still new cases of coronavirus in Europe in late May, but we are allowed to travel to Geneva from the U.S. then return to the U.S. a week later. Then the question becomes do I, a healthy 61 year old, do the 50 mile ultra run with 17K feet of elevation gain and risk being immune compromised in the days after the race? My wife certainly doesn't want me to quarantine myself in our hotel room for three or four days after the race. My immune system should be working very well on the trip to France after a long taper.

I'm also wondering whether the race insurance I purchased will cover my entry fee if the race still happens but I'm either too worried or not allowed to travel to Geneva from the U.S. I haven't looked at the insurance details yet.

I probably have another 4 to 6 weeks to obsess about this as we haven't purchased airline tickets yet.
