Dawn to Dusk Adventure Race

May 10, 2014 · Santa Margarita, CA

Distance: 8 - 12 hour adventure race

The Dawn to Dusk is a demanding day race designed for solo, two, three and four person teams to complete in 8 to 12 hours. It is held in the beautiful Santa Margarita Lake and the Santa Lucia National Forest, an area known to locals but few others. Santa Margarita Lake is nestled in between jagged sandstone pinnacles, rolling hills and proud oak trees of the Santa Lucia National Forrest. On a clear day one can see the coastline and the Sierra mountain range silhouette. Racing in this terrain isn’t easy, the mountain bike and run sections include single track, fire road, road, even some bushwhacking and require endurance and dedication to accomplish.

Second year in a row that I have done this race. This years was way harder than last year, but it was great fun. I had a wonderful time and would encourage everybody who likes endurance sports and a love of the outdoors to do one of these races. The staff is fantastic and super helpful and friendly. This event requires training and should not be taken on by the casual athlete. You are on your own and there is little support along the route. You have to know how to orienteer or you will never find your way around the unmarked course. But that is true of all adventure races. That is why they are ADVENTURE races.
