About the race
The 4-Leaf Clover 5K Trail Run/Walk is a trail event held at Bethpage State Park, with a separate free Kiddie Clover Fun Run. The course begins on a grassy polo field and follows winding, soft trails through the park, with a few small hills and mostly flat terrain. The course is described as having a cross country feel similar to the 2018 NCAA Division II East Region Championships.
Distances:
- 5K Trail Run/Walk
