Ideally set up in a central location with high-energy atmosphere for relay exchanges, participants and spectators can gather, cheer, refuel and easily access the nearby finish line. The post-race party is one not to be missed with live music, hot bRUNch from Flanders Fish Market, and incredible camaraderie.
Choose an adventure:
- Rocky Neck Relay: Each member of the 3-person team takes on one road 5K and one trail 5K with a break in between rotations. A centrally located exchange zone lets team members relax, refuel and cheer others when not in their run rotation. All teams cross the finish line together at the beach.
- Rocky Neck 30K: Solo adventure with 5K rotations of road and trail courses for a total of six legs, approximately 18.6 miles. The early spring adventure will test endurance with a beautiful, challenging trail venue complimented with the road course in and around the campground area.
- Rocky Neck 5K, trail OR road: Both offer picturesque views of Rocky Neck State Park and a stunning finish overlooking beautiful Long Island Sound. The trail 5K is part of the USATF-CT Mountain, Ultra and Trail (MUT) race series.
All participants will earn a technical shirt and custom designed finisher medal.
2025 Challenge: A twist on the popular race series, the Shoreline Challenge explores three beautiful race courses in participants’ distance of choice! Sign up for any distance at the Rocky Neck Runfest in April, the Mystic Half Marathon & 10K in May and then at the Surftown Half Marathon, Relay & 5K to end the summer by the shore in early September. The special Shoreline Challenge commemorative medal will be presented in Westerly at Surftown.
