This is a wonderful way to spend the morning of the 4th of July. The course is self-timed, with many walkers who are courteous to runners. The 2025 medal was not as nice as previous years’ medals, but that is my only critique. This event benefits a wonderful organization in Special Olympics New Jersey.

Excellent event for anybody who would like to start their 4th of July off with a run! Relatively small participation pool and all registrants raise money for Special Olympics New Jersey. Course itself is just loops around Statue of Liberty island, participants may stay on the island after the race if they wish before crowds arrive. Well-organized event, only one ferry in morning so you must make that if you wish to complete the run. Nice medal and shirt design, can receive extra swag for dollars raised. Plenty of time for pictures after the run as well!
