I am starting a new race on May 2nd 2009. It will be a trail race and in Morris County NJ. It is approximately 45 mins from NYC, 1 hour from Philly, 2.5 hours from Albany NY and Newark DE. With the three options of Quarter Marathon, Half Marathon and Marathon there is something for everyone in the car pool. The finish is in a nice sunny ball field so bring the lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy the BBQ. There is also a children's playground so it is fun for the whole family. Muddy Marathon
