The 08085 Run/Walk/Sit: One mild-mannered zip code … with an event boasting five fantastic options! Join us for one or more of the 7th annual 08085 Run possibilities. In zip code order, choose from:
1. A 0.8 Mile kids’ run/walk (1.29K) - Course along a flat, paved trail within Locke Avenue Park.
2. A 0.8 Mile walk (VIRTUAL) - Choose your own course and walk at your leisure.
3. A 0K sit (approximately no miles) - Course along a comfortable chair of your choosing. All the stuff with little-to-none of the sweat!
4. An 8K run (4.96 miles) - Road and Trail. Mostly out-and-back course mostly along High Hill Road but only featuring gentle, rolling hills less imposing than the road’s name suggests. 3.1 Miles on the paved 5K course with another 1.9 miles on Tranquility Trails, unpaved mostly on a 20' wide dirt trail bordering wooded areas, but there are about 200 yards of trail (with tree roots) through wooded wetland areas. Depending on weather conditions, some mud may be involved.
5. A 5K run/walk (3.1 miles) - Less-challenging paved course Starting in Locke Ave Park, through High Hill Park, alongside High Hill Road to Tranquility Trails and back..
