COURSE NOTES
TRAIL RUNNING AWESOMENESS awaits! Join us as the Way Over Yonder Trail Run Series Heads just over the NJ state line to Sterling Forest NY. The loops are different from other trail runs that have taken place at Sterling in the past and a good challenge. "HALF MARATHON" Loop will be 14 Miles with 1800 ft elevation gain. There's also a 10K loop for runners that are looking for something shorter and we've been able to dial that to a true 6.2 mile run. We'll be taking a page out of the Barkley Marathon for this adventure. Half Marathon & Marathon racers will rip a page from a book at each check point. You'll need to carry the pages and turn them in at finish to prove you've completed the entire course. We'll be bringing in a spread including fresh bagels, coffee, fruit and cold drinks for post race celebrations.
You do not have to have run in any of the prior Way Over Yonder series races to be eligible to race this one.
WINNERS
All runners will get a special limited edition wooden plaque commemorating your Awesome finish!
We'll have Equal Mens & Womens Podiums with medals for Age Group Winners for Half Marathon & 10K. (19 & Under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60+)
