California >  Sankara iWalk Half Marathon, 10K & 5K
Mountain View, CA

Date

Saturday, August 25, 2007


Event Details

The 2007 event is the third annual running of the Sankara iWalk 10K and 5K, and marks the first-ever running of its brand-new half marathon. Open to both runners and walkers, the race is sponsored by the Sankara Eye Foundation, which raises money for eye care and specialized procedures such as corneal transplants for patients in India.

The half marathon portion of the event starts at 7:30 AM (with an 8:30 AM starting time for the 10K and 5K) at Mountain View's Shoreline Park, a scenic 700-acre park with the look of a country club, complete with a saltwater lake, golf course, rolling grassy hills, and 10 miles of bay trails, located just to the north of the city.

The course for the race takes participants along the park's 10 miles of waterfront trails, some paved and some dirt trails, past the 50-acre lake and past its golf courses, and along the tidal marshes and saltwater ponds.
