The event uses chip timing on a USATF certified course and will be professionally timed by South Jersey Race Timing LLC. Results will be available by text to mobile devices and posted on site. The course is described as flat and police-controlled and passes the monument area dedicated to Cpl. Marc T. Ryan. Organizers will convert the event to virtual if state regulations prevent a live event; participants will still receive a shirt, bib, and finisher medal in that case.
There is a finisher medal for all participants. Additional features for this year include an HD finish line video available on YouTube. Awards are offered to the top three male and female finishers with cash prizes of $100, $75, and $50, and category awards for age groups: 14 & under; 15-19; 20-29; 30-39; 40-49; 50-59; 60+. Early packet pickup is scheduled at Holy City Public House on November 13, and in-person packet pickup and registration will be hosted at the Gloucester City VFW. Parking is directed to the city lot at Hudson and N. King Streets, with a short walk to the start. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
