The Trail Mix-up series will be held starting at 8:00 AM. The 50K event is part of the New York Ultra Running (NYUR) Grand Prix Series. The Race Director asks that you enter on this page through Ultra Signup (with no added fee). The event will be two races in one: an 18 mile (approx. 30-kilometer) and a 50-kilometer, but NOT separate. There only will be one start, and if you do go on to 50K, you still will be recorded with an official time and place for the 18 mile. You DO NOT have to declare what distance (30K or 50K) you are running.
The check-in area will be near the intersection of Myrtle Avenue and Park Lane South, with the Start & Finish Staging area a short distance up a park road.
The race loop is an approx. 3.35-mile loop on a variety of paved & trail terrain. Paved surface is about 1.1 miles mainly on asphalt park drives. The trail sector is about 2.2 miles in scenic woodsy surroundings. The trail is very runnable but will still include rocks, boulders, wood chips, roots, wood steps and leaves. But it cannot be considered "technical"... however it is still challenging. The overall race loop is rolling with a 300-yard significant climb. The 18 mile course will be 5½, and the 50K course will be 9½ loops.
