Sri Chinmoy 6-Hour Race - San Diego
This event is a six hour timed run on a 5-mile asphalt loop around a lake in San Diego. Athletes move in a clockwise direction and complete as many five mile laps as they wish. Lap and mileage tracking is done with chip timing. In the final 30 minutes of the event, reaching one of the outpost aid stations can be credited as additional mileage; athletes must then walk back or forward to the Start/Finish staging area.
The course is mostly flat with a few gentle hills and has a wide footpath. Pedestrians and bicycles traveling in the opposite direction use a separate lane. Four aid stations support athletes on course: one main station at the staging area with a variety of food and drinks, plus three smaller stations along the loop. Athletes may leave personal gear and nutrition in a secure area near the main staging area and access it each lap.
Facilities include multiple restrooms (four permanent restrooms in one location and portable toilets along the course). A medical doctor will be on site for non-emergency issues; emergency services will be called when needed. Participants receive a t-shirt, medal, and Certificate of Achievement, and awards are given in Open (49 and under), 50-59, and 60-69 age categories. The event is sponsored by the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team and sanctioned by USATF.
Registration closes at 11:59 p.m. PT on Nov. 5 or when the participant limit of 75 has been reached. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
