Start Location / The Course

 

Start Location

Full Course Map

Runners will start on the Parade Ground, a wide field bordering Broadway, and head south. Turn left/east to pass the Van Cortlandt Mansion along the southern edge of the Parade Ground, then left/north again to enter the woods at the Cow Path entrance. Runners will ascend the trail as they continue north. As the trail parallels the Henry Hudson Parkway, make the right turn toward the Back Hills. Make this complete loop, then head back toward the Parade Ground. The trail is mostly downhill and flat. Exit the woods with about three-quarters of a mile to go and continue to the finish along Broadway beyond the Tortoise and Hare statue.

Results and Awards

 

After the conclusion of the event, official results will be posted on results.nyrr.org.

Kurt Steiner awards will be presented on site to the top-three finishers in the overall men, women, and non-binary divisions.
