SPOKANE — A lone suspected case of swine flu in Spokane will not stop the annual Bloomsday road race this Sunday.
Organizers met with the Spokane Regional Health District Thursday and said afterward that the race will go on. The 12-kilometer Bloomsday race annually draws more than 40,000 runners and is billed as the largest race in the nation in which all participants are timed.
Health officials in Spokane are still trying to make contact with a man suspected of having the swine flu. The man is described as in his 40s who recently returned from California and went to his doctor when he felt sick.
