If you're prepping for New York (or Mystic, Chicago, Hartford, or any other fall marathon) and want to do a long run with some company and comfort, this is it. We've found some of the flattest, most scenic roads around lower Fairfield and mapped out a cloverleaf course that's about as easy as 30 km can be.
COURSE
USATF certified flat double loop course. Aid stations every 2.5-3 miles. Mile, 5 km, half marathon and 1 mile to go splits marked. Records: Bryce Lindamood 1:43:48, Dana Parrot 1:59:05. Masters: Joe Puopolo 1:49:11, Mary Chute 2:02:08
DIRECTIONS
I-95 to Exit 21. South under RR bridge to Post Rd. (Rt. 1). Right on Post Rd. to Shell station, left on South Pine Creek. Follow through 4-way stop, look for parking lot on left, corner of Old Dam. Park here and walk 120m down South Pine Creek to Scandinavian Club on the left.
LIMITS
Field limited to 150 runners. Please check web site to see if limit has been reached. NOTE: The finish line will remain open until 3:06:24 (10 min. pace). Entrants planning to run slower should start early (maps available) and carry their own fluids.
AWARDS
First male and female overall and masters.
AMMENITIES
Indoor registration and warmup area, with plenty of bathrooms. PowerGel to all runners and available at aid stations. Post race food featuring Marty's mom's pasta, bagels, donuts, fruit, more - last year there was tons left over.
