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.
