| The Event: |
One of the prettiest places to run in northern New Jersey is Stephen R. Gregg Park in Bayonne. Our 5K run/2 mile walk is held on the totally waterfront, paved paths of this beautiful venue. Mile clocks, two water stops and great volunteers insure a safe and satisfying experience.
Stephen R. Gregg Park is 5 minutes off of the New Jersey Turnpike Extension at Exit 14A. This is a super fast course so lace up those running shoes and join us on September 20th. |
