 _ 2017 Sri Chinmoy 1 & 4-Mile Race "Around the World":

Ready to run around “The World”?  Then this event is for you!
Both races take place in Flushing Meadows Park on a scenic and mostly flat course that includes a gentle curve around “The World” - the iconic 140-ft tall World’s Fair Unisphere.  USATF certified course and sanctioned event.
Choose one of the following 3 options:

1-Mile Race:  9:30AM start.  An out-and-back course, the "turnaround" is a gentle 250-meter curve around the Unisphere.  Course includes a small hill.
Sprinters, runners and joggers welcome! 

4-Mile Race:  10:00AM start.  Two laps around a 2-mile loop, which includes the 1-mile section described above (you get to run around the world twice!), and a 1-mile section that touches the shores of Meadow Lake. 

1+4 CHALLENGE:  Are you up for the CHALLENGE?  Run the 1-Mile Race at 9:30 am, catch your breath and rest up, then set off on the 4-Mile Race at 10am!  Competitors are eligible for awards in both the 1-mile and 4-mile races, and those with the fastest combined 1-mile and 4-mile times will receive "1+4 CHALLENGE" awards.
