It’s time for the Double Peak Challenge 10k/5k/Kids Trail Trot on Saturday, September 25th! The competitive 10k trail run will offer scenic views of San Marcos and beyond. The swag pack for the 10k will include racer’s bib, wood medal, socks, and race shirt. The 5k Fun Run is not timed but still offers the chance to beat your previous time on the course. The 5k Fun Run swag pack will include racer’s bib, wood medal and socks. The Kid’s Trail Trot offers a quick sprint course for younger kids and they will receive a medal.

This event may impact your neighborhood due to an influx of event participants that may decrease the amount of available street parking, increased trail usage between 7:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. and may cause some traffic delays along Elfin Forest Road near Archer Road and Windemere Drive. Double Peak Park will remain closed to the public until the race finishes.  Parking at San Elijo Park and the surrounding area will be heavily impacted.  Ball field lights at San Elijo Park will be turned on from 5 a.m. – sunrise for event prep.  The City of San Marcos apologizes in advance for any inconvenience!  We hope to see you there!
 
Sincerely,

San Marcos Parks & Recreation Department
