NYC Trail Mix

NYC Trail Mix

NYC Trail Mix is a trail running event on Staten Island, New York, organized by Redpoint Productions and benefitting the Greenbelt Conservancy. The event uses looped courses that run through Greenbelt areas such as Blood Root Valley, High Rock Park, La Tourette Park, and the Field of Dreams. The course moves mostly on trails and single track with minimal road crossings.

Distances offered

• 50 Miler, three 16.6 mile loops
• 50K, two 15.5 mile loops
• Half Marathon, one 13.1 mile loop

There are three named aid stations on the loop: High Rock, La Tourette, and the Nature Center. High Rock is about five miles into the loop and does not allow crews, spectators, or drop bags. La Tourette is about eleven miles into each loop and allows crews, spectators, and drop bags. The Nature Center is at the same location as the start and finish area. Across race distances the half marathon uses two aid stations, the 50K visits five aid stations, and the 50 mile visits eight aid stations.

Aid station provisions include electrolyte hydration, fruit, sandwiches, potatoes, pretzels, chips, candy, broth and occasional hot items; vegan and gluten free options are available. Crew and spectator access is restricted to specific locations. The event has raised funds for the Greenbelt Conservancy in prior years.
