Double Squatch - Branchville, New Jersey - Running

The Double Squatch is a Running race in Branchville, New Jersey consisting of a 3 Hour Trail Run and 5K Trail Run and 6 Hour Trail Run (Ultra).

Double the Squatch, double the fun! Join us on Saturday and/or Sunday at Stokes State Forest for the DOUBLE SQUATCH as we support the New York-New Jersey Trail Conference! One of the few races of its kind, the Double Squatch is a 2-day event where runners can test their limits and see how many miles they can cover in one or two days. Runners and hikers can sign up for a 5K, 3H or 6H on one or both days! Do you have what it takes to run for hours on Saturday and then come back and do it all again on Sunday??? This is the perfect event for ultra runners who need those back to back long runs! How many miles can you Squatch in two days? Oh and by the way, Sunday is DAYLIGHT SAVING! This is a runner/hiker friendly event. Runners/hikers can sign up for one or both days and do whatever combination of events they desire. You can only choose 1 event per day as all three events begin at 9am; don't be THAT runner who registers for 2 events on the same day...... The event starts and finishes at the Kittle Field Day Use Area. When you arrive at the main entrance for the park, follow signs for Kittle Field Day Use Area. The 3.2 mile lollipop course has 350 ft of gain. There is a nice mix of double wide and singletrack trails. There is a .40 mi section in one of the climbs that is technical and may cause even the fast Squatchers to slow down a little. You can see the elevation profile in the picture gallery at the top of the page. The course will be well-marked with bright ribbons. We will be following the Stony Brook Trail (brown) to Blue Mountain Trail (blue) to Silver Mine Trail (orange) and then back to Stony Brook Trail (brown).
