Join this June for the Sri Chinmoy 24-Hour, 12-Hour & Midnight Marathon at Rockland Lake State Park, just 45 min. north of NYC. Featuring a scenic, “pancake flat” and fast 2.95 mile paved loop around beautiful Rockland Lake. Get ready for your PR!
Whether this is your first ever ultra, or you’re going for a national record, this is your race! Sri Chinmoy strives to provide a high standard of runner service and support for all participants, regardless of abilities.
The course is a scenic, flat and fast 2.95-mile paved pathway around Rockland Lake, accurately measured & USATF certified course. Marathon is just shy of 9 laps. The entire loop was repaved in 2020 and is in excellent shape – smooth, flat, no bumps, cracks or potholes. About 50% of the course is shaded, 50% exposed. Race-Day Central and 12-Hour and 24-Hour start are near Parking field 5. Midnight Marathon start is about 7 minutes walk north of Race-Day Central
IMPORTANT: There are no lights on the course. Headlamps are highly recommended after dark.
Lap counting will be done manually by race staff. Please ensure your race bib is visible on the front of your torso (not your side, leg, back etc.) each time you pass the counting station, and Aid Stations 1 & 2, otherwise your laps won’t be counted!
Note for 24-Hour & 12-Hour runners: Aid stations 1 & 2 on the loop are measured from the start line, and in the last 30 minutes of the race runners passing these points will be recorded and receive credit for the extra distance, in case they do not complete a full final loop before the race ends.

This was the most peaceful marathon I have run so far. There weren’t very many runners, so lots of space. The race organizers made sure to count every lap (there were 9 of them). The only thing to remember is bring a headlamp, it would have been difficult to see without one. I would definitely recommend this race!
