Join the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team in cooperation with the Prospect Park Alliance and NYC Parks Department on Sunday, March 11 for the Sri Chinmoy 5K & 7-mile race, featuring a scenic loop course around the park.
The Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team was formed in 1977 by students of the Indian meditation master, author, poet and philosopher Sri Chinmoy.
A champion athlete in the Indian spiritual community where he had lived for 20 years before coming to America, Sri Chinmoy felt that sport was a natural aid to well being.
At the time of the Marathon Team’s founding, Sri Chinmoy was encouraging his students to increase their physical fitness as a natural complement to their meditation practice.
Although Chinmoy passed away in 2007, the Marathon Team has continued to be a standard bearer for his vision of realizing human potential through sports.
Be a part of Chinmoy’s legacy by taking part in the 5k and 7-mile races! Register early as spots fill up quickly!
Number pickup will be on race day only, between 9:00 – 9:45 AM and both races will start at 10 am.
Stick around for the post-race pancake breakfast! Hot pancakes are even more enjoyable after you’ve run a race, and they’re free!
