Rock The Ridge 50

Set in the natural beauty of the Shawangunk Mountains of New York’s Hudson Valley, an area described as “one of Earth’s last great places,” Rock The Ridge welcomes runners and hikers to experience the 50-mile course – either by completing the full 50-mile Ultra Marathon, the shorter, yet still challenging 26.2 mile Trail Marathon or as part of a two, three or four-person relay team. The generous 18-hour cutoff for the 50-mile course, closely spaced aid stations and incredible volunteers make this event unlike any other. What better way to spend a day than winding along well-maintained carriage roads, through lush forests and over ridgelines with magnificent vistas. Whether you’re an experienced ultra-runner, a first timer, or part of a relay team, Rock The Ridge is simply an unforgettable experience for a great cause!

Fantastic well-marked course on wide carriage roads; Generous cutoff times and 18 hours to finish; Well-stocked and closely spaced aid stations; Amazing volunteers; Personalized fundraising support; Fun finish-line party; and the Knowledge that you’re helping to save the land for life!
