You're Invited to a Special Event!
Join us for a day of fun, fitness, and community at Newtown Battlefield State Park, hosted by the Southern Tier Running Club (STRC).
The 3-Hour Trail Challenge
Start Time: 9:00 AM
Location: Newtown Battlefield State Park
Course: 1-mile trail loop with ~300 feet of elevation gain per loop
Challenge yourself on a beautiful 1-mile trail loop in a 3-hour timed event. Run as many loops as you can within the time limit—but remember, only loops completed before the 3-hour mark count! You can stop whenever you like; there's no pressure to run the full duration. Run, hike, walk, stroll for as many miles/minutes as you want.
A fully stocked aid station will be available at the start/finish area to keep you fueled and hydrated.
Entry Fee: $65.00

A covered pavilion (just in case the weather doesn’t cooperate)
Picnic tables (bring lawn chairs if you’d like)
A large field for games and fun
Volleyball net and horseshoe pits
Yard games (bring your favorites!)
Bring your family, bring your friends—this is a celebration of community and the joy of being outdoors together.
