EARLY PACKET PICK-UPWednesday, March 23rd Westchester Road Runner Store RACE DAY – Saturday, March 26thNumber/T-shirt pick-up Race day registration ($70) If you are staying at one of our local hotels please arrange your race day transportation directly with the hotel. 9:15am COURSEThe Sleepy Hollow Half Marathon course features approximately 5 miles of carriage roads and groomed trails (meaning crushed gravel and dirt) in the Rockefeller State Park Preserve. The 13.1-mile USATF-certified course also travels along the Old Croton Aqueduct and, as in past years, winds through picturesque neighborhoods in Sleepy Hollow. The idyllic landscape and scenic views of the Rockefeller State Park Preserve now make up part of the course due to construction and development along sections of the Sleepy Hollow waterfront. We are thrilled to make it possible for you to race on the same spectacular carriage roads and trails that serve as a training ground for many of the area’s top runners. And if the magnificent Hudson River views on our new course don’t take your breath away, the hills on our course will! Official Course Map: Download the Official Course Map!
