• Description: The first 6 miles...
  The first half mile is around a grass field onto the Long Path. The next half mile is a somewhat technical section with some rocks and roots, but once that is complete, the remaining portion is on easier terrain with a mile incline between 1.5-2.5m.
  
  The remaining 7+ miles
  The second half of the course is a bit more difficult and technical than the first. Be prepared for mud and muck, rocks and roots, and fun!
  
  The course is beautiful. If you will be in shape to complete the 'full' half marathon distance, we recommend that you run it.
  
  Run at an ARE event before?
  The HGH & SS take place within Thacher Park. This is a more technical type of trail than what you would encounter in the Pine Bush preserve.
