Logistics, awards and charity
Packet pickup is scheduled the Friday before the race at The Roasted Breadfruit Smokehouse & Grill (400 NJ-15, Wharton). Same-day packet pickup is available at Arthur Stanlick School; participants are advised to allow extra time for parking. A traffic advisory notes a closure on Rt. 80 West that may cause delays near the Rt. 15 exit to Jefferson; leaving Lake Hopatcong to access Rt. 80 is not affected.
