The Run the Jewels Trail Race is made up of 5 out and back routes with the start/finish area staged out of the Camp Wheeler main office. Each route is fully marked with different colors per route. The total distance covered will be 60K or 37-ish miles with 7200ft of elevation gain. What is with the name? Well at end of each out and back you will collect a “jewel” showing that you made it. Each route is considered complete once you make it back to base camp. You can only collect one jewel at a time.
Course Details
The routes have been designed to include the most challenging sections that the Allamuchy State Park has to offer. Plus a few gems within the Scout property that you normal wouldn’t get to run on.
Everyone will start on the same route but after that you get to choose what order you complete the rest in. We will not tell you which route you are doing first until race day. We will have a map posted at basecamp showing all the routes. This way you will have an idea of where each route will take you.
Racers will check in and out at the Camp Wheeler start/finish area after each route and before heading back out on the course.
Things to Note
– We will have an aid station located in the start/finish area.
