About the event
The Self-Transcendence Pacific Beach Swim & Run was the shorter of the two summer swim-run races put on by the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team in San Diego. It was held each June, a few weeks before the La Jolla Swim & Run, and the 2006 race was the 15th annual edition.
The race began with a half-mile ocean swim around Crystal Pier, followed by a 5K out-and-back run on the beach at low tide. The staging area was on the beach just north of the pier, at Garnet Avenue and Mission Boulevard. Relays and wetsuits were allowed, and San Diego city lifeguards watched over the swim. Every participant received a multi-colored T-shirt and refreshments, with awards for each age group and for the top men's, women's and mixed relay teams.
Results from 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2011 are listed below.
