From the www.norawas.org website:

"Norawas de Rarámuri was established in July of 2009 by several members of a group known as Club Mas Loco. This group is made up of a seemingly random collection of people from around the world, all brought together through running Caballo Blanco’s Copper Canyon Ultra Marathon."

Soja Mind / Body is located in north Oakland's Uptown District. There is plenty of free on street parking at this hour, yellow zones included. The 19th BART station is a five minute walk, but if you're interested in this event, you just might want to jog there. :)
