Race Overview
Your lap. Your cause. Your impact.
The Bloomberg Square Mile Relay is back and returns to San Francisco for the fourth time on June 11, 2020 and we want you to be at the heart of it!
This internationally-renowned annual event will provide the perfect opportunity for San Francisco’s top businesses to come together, as teams of ten employees each take turns to run the unique one-mile (1.6km) route, all in a bid to be crowned the fastest company in the city!
With awards for top 3 fastest teams, fastest mixed team and fastest all-female team, the competition will be hotter than ever. Not only that, but it really is an event for all and teams will enjoy the fantastic team bonding and networking opportunities with the biggest businesses in the city taking to the start line and with 25% of all team entries going to our charity partner, it provides long lasting impact long after the final runners have crossed the finish line.

Charities
The Extra Mile helps participants of the Bloomberg Square Mile Relay contribute to their city in a bigger, better way. We are delighted to be working with America Scores as The Extra Mile Partner in 2019.
America SCORES Bay Area (SCORES) is a youth development program for children in grades 1-8 during out-of-school time. SCORES partners with public schools in low-income communities to implement a triple play curriculum of soccer, poetry, and civic engagement. SCORES impacts the lives over 1,600 children in 72 schools in San Francisco, Alameda, Marin, and San Mateo Counties.
Youth who participate in SCORES are our “poet-athletes” – a term they proudly embrace. Through dedicated coaches, soccer yields improved fitness, teamwork, and social skills. Poetry allows students to discover their individual voices, all while building critical literacy skills and self-confidence. Civic Engagement helps SCORES students learn how to make a positive, impactful contribution to their communities through semester-long service-learning curricula.
By leveraging the team-work of soccer, the harmony of poetry and the connectedness of civic engagement, our program helps students develop and apply the tools they need to succeed on and off the field.
For the 2019 San Francisco relay, $20,000 will be donated to America Scores. These funds will be used to create a year-long project to address the winning cause.
