About the Cindy's Race 10 Mile
The courses start and finish at Howarth Park, winding along paved paths around Spring Lake. The shorter options stay near the lake and pass under redwoods, with enough rolling hills to keep things honest. The longer course pushes into Annadal State Park, climbing Spring Creek before looping back, and mixes trail with pavement throughout.
Packet pickup runs the day before at Fleet Feet in Santa Rosa, with a race-morning window as well. The race is organized around a breast cancer awareness cause, so the crowd tends to include people who are there for a reason beyond the finish line.

The Cindy's Race 10 Mile has been held every year since at least 2019. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Jul 27, 2026.
