    The International Self Transcendence 2 Mile Race

    By Rupantar LaRusso author bio »
    4 June

    About the author:

    Rupantar has been the race director of the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team since 1985, having been asked by Sri Chinmoy to serve in that capacity. As well as working on the big races the US Marathon Team organise each year - the 3100 Mile Race and the Six and 10 Day Race - he also spends a considerable amount of time archiving the Marathon Team's 40 year history on this website.

    The Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team sponsors over 500 athletic events world-wide.

     

    Our first races were 5 mile and 10 mile races held in the New York area.  But it was the 2 mile distance that became our first race held on a regular basis. Since those first races in New York we have held two mile races all over the world, on streets, on tracks, on park lands, and even on beaches. In New York we still conduct the 2 milers every Saturday near Jamaica High School in Queens. For a good workout or a friendly joust with speed, try one of our 2 mile races.

    About the author:

    Medur is our go-to person for many of the essential tasks involved in putting on our races: race setup, our lap counting system and our website. An enthusiastic runner himself, he has participated in many editions of the Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run in Canada and the US.
