ABOUT THE RACE AND COURSE
COLD FEAT WILL ONCE AGAIN OFFER TWO DISTANCE CHOICES! THE 5K RUNNERS
WILL BE ON A SEPARATE PART OF THE COURSE, AND WILL GO OUT 15 MINUTES
AHEAD OF THE 10K RUNNERS.
Start/finish is by the historic David LaTourette House, which, today
operares as the LaTourette clubhouse for this beautiful golf course.
The Cold Feat course begins on the rolling fairways and takes you off
into the surrounding Greenbelt trails - rustic and hilly. In trail
running, you will encounter uneven terrain, exposed tree roots, and
sometimes mud. The course is marked but it's necessary to pay close
attention to where you're running. This is a great trail race that
attracts a friendly group of runners from Staten Island and the
tri-state area - it's a effective remedy for cabin fever!
Runners will recieve a high quality running shirt or hat, chip timing
and refreshments. An awards ceremony with beautiful medals for top
three male/female winners, and three deep in age categories, will
follow.
We run in all weather conditions and, based on past race experiences,
have found it can be done! This race will be professionally timed
culminating in a medal ceremony. Refreshments and high quality race
apparel (a hat or shirt) are provided for the first 120 runners.
The Grille Room bar will be open to serve runners over the age of 21.
Hot chocolate and coffee will also be for sale.
THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS OFFERED FOR TICKETS PURCHASED; PLEASE MAKE
SURE YOU CAN MAKE IT BEFORE PURCHASING!
NOT RUNNING? Come out and voluneer with US! We have fun assignments
indoors and out, both before and during race day. We can provide
community service credit for students, and we welcome families.
