Revised Procedures for 2024

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we made several changes to our normal operating procedures  that made races safer and more efficient (and easier for our timer!). We will be retaining many of them this year.

Please read them before registering so you will know what is changed for summer 2024.

Special guests Roger Robinson & Kathrine Switzer

Long-time friends of  Waveny, Roger and Kathrine will visit again this Tuesday, and will run the Boardwalk 5K. 

They will  bring copies of their books for sale (at special Waveny price) and for personally signing (great gifts for any runner!). 

Kathrine Switzer, Marathon Woman, bestseller and inspiration for 15 years.

Roger Robinson, Running Throughout Time: the Greatest Running Stories Ever Told, the latest by running's premier historical storyteller. 

Switzer & Robinson, 26.2 Marathon Stories, running's best coffee table illustrated book. (Just a few left. Be early.) 

$20 each. Buy Running Throughout Time or any two and get Roger's beautifully written and produced Spirit of the Marathon free. 

Please bring cash or check. Technology will be problematic in the park. 

Photo shows Kathrine and Roger with a retired ex-miler before Roger won the World Cross-Country Championship in Australia last year (over-80, that is). 

Registration opens 48 hours before start.

All runners MUST pre-register online.
No on-site paper registration.
Pay $5 entry fee when you check in.
