Sri Chinmoy 6-Hour Race - San Diego

Sri Chinmoy 6-Hour Race - San Diego is held in San Diego, California, on November 8, 2026, starting at 7 a.m. Rather than a set distance, this is a fixed-time event: the clock runs for six hours and the distance you cover in that window is your result. Everyone finishes at the same moment, whatever their speed, which makes it as accessible to a steady walker as it is to an experienced ultrarunner.

Timed races reward patience and logistics more than raw speed. Plan on eating and drinking on a schedule from the first hour, well before you feel you need to, and settle into a pace you could hold for far longer than you intend to. If you are moving up from the marathon, practice run-walk cycles in training and treat the last two hours, not the first, as the real race.
