First, if you ran or picked up your bib for the series last week you must bring it back this week. If you’re carpooling, which we ask that you do, please remember to bring your bib and not to leave it in your car. Also, you don’t need to check in.
Parking
Carpooling, if you can, will be extremely helpful. Parking at the trail site parking on Springtown Rd will be limited to cars with 3 or more runners and for parents with little kids who will be running in the kid’s races. ALL others will need to park in the village and give themselves extra time. I’ve linked to a map that shows some of the village municipal parking.

Getting to the Start Line
The R2R trail actually starts right at the bridge, near The Gilded Otter, across the Wallkill so please dont walk on the roadway. Google Map of the Start / Finish
