About East Jersey Old Town Village
This special historic village has delighted visitors with a glimpse into the past since its opening in 1978.
The Village features historic structures from the 1700s and 1800s, relocated to its site within Johnson Park. They represent different architecture styles found throughout Middlesex County’s Raritan Valley. The Village’s founder, Dr. Joseph Kler, and a group of local residents saved most of the buildings from demolition and transported them to the Village where they were reassembled and restored to reflect how they would have looked way back when. Join us for a run that will take you on a tour of the park.

Little known facts about the trails of Forest Park:
The Wisconsinian glaciation molded this land between 20,000 and 10,000 years ago and left the Harbor Hill Moraine, a series of small hills known as “knob and kettle” terrain, including Forest Park. Which means the trails are naturally carved, not manmade like most nyc parks. Come explore and experience the beautiful 100 year old pine grove and longest continuous oak forest in Queens!
This race is dedicated to Pinky the Pacer, the lil white and brown dog with the pink nose who completed several thousand miles of trail running through the woods of Forest Park in Queens. Legends never die.

The NY Tourist is an East Coast homage to The L.A. Tourist Race.
The NY Tourist departs from Two Seas Cyclery in Brooklyn, NY at 0800 sharp and sends you into the greater New York area in search of “checkpoints” at specific GPS locations.
The objective is to route and navigate yourself to each “checkpoint”. On your journey you will encounter NYC traffic, trails that are actually river beds, iPhone scrolling j walkers, luxury gravel roads, downed trees, over-the-ear noise canceling headphone wearing dog walkers, single track, and hopefully areas of the East Coast you haven’t ridden a bike before.
This is a self supported and self navigating event, and It’s highly recommended to use a bike computer for navigation. Each “checkpoint” is one of the GPS coordinates, once you get to the “checkpoint“ you must tear a page from the book that matches your event entry plate number.
First one back to WeisMFG after collecting all pages wins. Failure to get the correct page number, miss a “checkpoint”, or lose a page will results in an automatic disqualification.
Take your ride to the next level with our optional enduro-style timed segments. These specially selected sections are designed to add excitement and challenge to your journey, giving you the chance to win a chance at a separate podium.
To qualify, simply upload your full ride to Strava. The fastest time on each segment for the day wins.
Ready to take on a challenge on the asphalt? 🏃♂️ Then join the Coney Island Half Marathon in Brooklyn! This legendary race will take you through one of the most vibrant neighborhoods of New York, blending seaside charm with urban vibes.
