Sri Chinmoy 7 and 13 Hour Races
Timed loop running races held on a 1.54 mile loop in Magnuson Park, Seattle. The course offers views of Lake Washington and sections of wooded single track, with a mix of pavement, gravel and chip surfaces. The start and finish are by the swimming beach, and there is ample free parking nearby.
Race operations include chip lap counting and a well stocked aid station. The aid station provides water, electrolytes, packaged foods, potatoes, simple sandwiches, nuts, fruits, vegetables, first aid and common caffeinated drinks. Participants are encouraged to bring a personal fluid bottle to reduce cup waste.
Facilities at the venue include washrooms, a solar heated outdoor shower and post race swimming access. A boxed vegetarian post race meal is provided. Entry includes a running t shirt; entries received by April 23 receive a race t shirt. Awards recognize the top two Under 60 male and female finishers and the top two 60 and Over male and female finishers, plus medallions and certificates for all participants and a surprise drawing.
The event is sponsored by the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team, which has organized races for about 40 years and runs events ranging from 2 miles to the Self-Transcendence 3100 Mile Race. Proceeds support the Sri Chinmoy Oneness Home Peace Run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
