The 26th Running of San Francisco's Presidio 10 Race Was a Win For Local Charities, the Community and the Environment
Date:4/22/2010

The Guardsmen and Local Businesses Team Up Once Again For Annual Charity Race Across The Golden Gate Bridge

(PRWEB) April 22, 2010 -- Over 2,500 people participated in The Presidio 10 on Sunday, April 18th, reflecting the race's reputation as one of San Francisco's most unique community-oriented and volunteer organized races. One hundred percent of the net proceeds were donated to The Guardsmen and The Ashlyn Dyer Foundation for Neurological Research and Support and, in keeping with the spirit of the race, the winner of the Men's 10-Mile race, Josh Sohn, has chosen to donate his first place prize of a $5,000 Life Fitness treadmill to the Veteran's Administration Hospital in Menlo Park.

Sponsored by The Guardsmen — in partnership with local philanthropic businesses — the Presidio 10 offered passionate athletes and compassionate individuals the opportunity to enjoy one of the most scenic running courses in the US, to build new friendships with fellow runners, and to give back to two great local causes — all while minimizing impact to the environment.

The Presidio 10 consisted of separate 10-Mile and 10-Kilometer races that traversed Crissy Field, the Presidio and Presidio bluffs, and featured a round trip across the Golden Gate Bridge. Fierce running competitors and casual runners alike flocked to one of San Francisco's most unique outdoor events. The post-race festival on Crissy Field included hot breakfast, live music, and a host of vendor-provided amenities all under the backdrop of the Golden Gate Bridge. Josh Sohn and Angela Strange were awarded first place medals for the men's and women's 10-Mile race, while Jeff Wilson and Kristi Rossi were the first place winners of the men's and women's 10-Kilometer race.
