Governor Murphy's Executive Order No. 234 increased the general outdoor gathering limit to 200 people effective April 2, 2021. CDC, NEW JERSEY STATE AND, USATF COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS WILL BE FOLLOWED (“social distancing” must be practiced and face coverings worn at all times when not running or walking)

ALL RUNNERS WILL RECEIVE A DRI-FIT CUSTOM RACE SHIRT, TIMED RESULTS, CUSTOM BIBS, AND MORE!
Bibs can be picked up the day of the race near the start from 7:00am until 8:45am. There will also be a bag check near the start concurrent with the bib pick up; bags will be provided. Runners must be lined up by 8:50am to be ready for the 9:00am start. Walkers must be lined up by 9:20am for a 9:30am start.
Join our USATF sanctioned 5K race through neighborly Harrison, NJ, starting at beautiful West Hudson Park and finishing at the lively Red Bull Arena Parking Lot. This race will be timed and is fast (many who have run the course report achieving a personal record), but participants will have at least an hour and a half to complete it.
We welcome all levels of runners: first timers, elites, families, masters, etc.; strollers and leashed dogs are welcome to participate in the walk, not the run.
Access to this event should be made from Dukes Street and Schuyler Avenue, the northeast side of the park, where limited free parking is available going west along Woodland Drive.
