I try to run this 5K every year. I consider it a good motivational race for the upcoming new year. A very popular race with local running clubs. Clifton Roadrunners, North Jersey Masters and the DeNovo Harriers were all there. Late 11:00 am start works well for New year's Eve party

The course was well marked with a lot of positive supportive kids along the course. Very fun colorful/creative awards!! Big plus the run supported the local High school track and field team.

If you are tired of the hype with high prices so you get bands and beer and just want to run a challenging half marathon put on by runners, for runners, this is the race to sign up for. It is a reasonable $35 with good aid stations and post race
