There will be four events in Palo Alto, California Saturday Dec 16.  The featured event is the Double 15k (10k+break=5k).  Times from the two legs are added together for scoring. Palo Alto 10k, Palo Alto 5k Run/Walk and the Bob Anderson's Kids Mile (for ages 13 and under).

Our courses are all run on a paved bike/running wide path.  The path winds through the beautiful Pal Alto baylands.  "Double Racing®, Double for short, is a sport consisting of two-stage running events.  Participants first run the longer stage, take a halftime break and then run the second stage. Times are combined for scoring.  Participants must complete both stages to get a time. The second stage starts 1 hour 45 minutes (restart) after the start of first leg.  

​This is a fun pre-christmas event for the whole family that has been run since 2012.
