The 4th Annual San Luis Mountain Run returns Sunday, March 7th. One of the most picturesque, challenging, and well-orchestrated 10k trail runs, it draws hundreds of participants from all over California. Runners will start at Laguna Lake Park, cross the flats that parallel the lake and start the climb up Cerro San Luis, circumnavigating it and gaining 1000 feet in the process. Beautiful, fun, and adventurous, runners should be sure not to miss this one.
A portion of the proceeds benefit SLO County’s Special Olympics, dedicated to providing year-round sports training and athletic competition to more than 2.25 million people with intellectual disabilities worldwide.
This was the MOST challenging course I have ever ran! If you’re not already in shape, you’re going have a tough time with this run, period. Great views, friendly staff. But like they say, this is no ordinary 10k – VERY challenging!
