Eppie's Great Race - July 23, 2011

The 38th annual Eppie's Great Race, the "world's oldest triathlon", is to take place on the 23rd of July this year.

People interested in signing-up to participate in the race can do so until Friday, July 22nd, but those who do on The Great Race's website before April 30th will save $60 off of their entry fee.

Participants can either sign up solo (as an ironman/ironwoman racer) or as a part of a racing team of up to three people.

The race starts at William Land Park in the Arden area of Sacramento and ventures along the American River to Guy West Bridge near the Sacramento State campus, then heading back up-river to the Sunrise Foot Bridge in Fair Oaks before finally going with the flow ending at River Bend Park in Rancho Cordova.

Eppie's Great Race also has a special "Kids Dualthlon", which includes a 2-mile run and a 5.75-mile bike ride, for those under 18 years old.

Sacramento billboards project May 21, 2011 as Judgment Day

Submitted by News10 Web Staff

SACRAMENTO COUNTY, CA - Billboards bearing the date May 21, 2011, as the day the world will end have popped up all across Sacramento County.

"The billboard indicates that Christ is returning, which all Christians believe in that," said John Ralich.

The billboard reads: "Joy to the world. The Lord is coming. May 21, 2011."

"How they arrived at that date, I have no clue. If it is true that Christ is coming, it would be the end of the world," said Ralich.

The billboard also lists radio station 88.1 FM FamilyRadio.com.
News10 tried to reach ministry leader Harold Camping at Family Radio Worldwide, based in Oakland, but he was not available.
However, News10 learned Camping calculated the May 21 date based on his reading of the Bible. He also broadcasts over the airwaves every evening, talking about May 21, 2011.

Some argue May 21 is judgement day.

SACRAMENTO, CA - A south Sacramento woman says "God is good and I have angels camped around me and the entire building" after a car smacked into her Turnbridge Drive bathroom just moments after she had left the room Friday afternoon.

Consuela Lawson said she had just stepped out of the shower, heard a commotion out front and went into her room to put on clothes on and 'they came through, they came through."

'They' was a car that had just been involved in a two-car wreck. Two people were injured in the collision and were taken to a nearby hospital, said Sacramento Fire Department Capt. Jonathan Burgess. Their conditions were not known.

Lawson's shower was crumpled. Neither she nor her daughter who was also home were hurt.

The incident was reported at 3:45 p.m.
