Shore2Shore is a point to point trail event along the full length of the Suffolk County Greenbelt Trail on April 17, 2027, in the East Islip area. The route runs from the north shore at Sunken Meadow to the south shore finish at Heckscher State Park.
The course uses mixed surfaces including singletrack and wider trail, occasional road sections, and bike path. There are multiple road crossings and changes in terrain that affect rhythm across the route.
Elevation for the 50K is about 1,200 ft with most climbing concentrated in the northern 10 miles. The 25K has substantially less elevation and features a net downhill second half. The course will be marked with pink flagging and the Greenbelt white-blaze system.
There are five fully stocked aid stations using Skratch Labs products along with snacks, PB&J, fruit, and candy. 50K runners may use drop bags at the third aid station and at the finish. Port-o-potties are provided at major aid stations and at the start and finish.
Parking is at the finish and shuttle buses transport runners to the start; bibs are distributed at the start area rather than before bus departure. Packet pickup is available at a local running store on the days before the race and at the start on race morning.
As part of entry, participants must complete two hours of volunteer or trail work or donate $20 or more to the Long Island Greenbelt Trail Conference between signup and April 1. Crew and pacer arrangements are the runner's responsibility. Live tracking is available on race day with details provided to participants in advance.
