Event overview
The Sri Chinmoy San Diego 6 hour Race is a timed endurance event held on a paved 5 mile loop around Lake Miramar. Athletes complete as many laps as they wish within six hours; laps are counted with timing chips and splits are posted every loop. Additional mileage in the final 30 minutes is recorded manually if a participant reaches one of three remote aid stations.
The course follows the asphalt road around the lake in a clockwise direction. Permanent wooden markers appear every quarter mile. Runners must remain on the certified asphalt loop; off road dirt trails are unmeasured and are off limits. The loop is shared with other park users and a yellow center line divides the roadway; participants are asked to keep to the right.
Four aid stations serve the course: one larger main station at the staging area and three smaller stations along the loop. Aid stations provide water, an electrolyte drink, and food options, and there are portable toilets near each station. There is a gear area at the main staging area where participants may leave supplies and access them on each lap. A hearty lunch, T shirts, medals, and certificates are provided to participants, and awards are given in Open, 50 to 59, and 60 and over age categories. The event is sanctioned by USA Track and Field. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
