The Squatchy Surprise
The Squatchy Surprise is a unique trail running event held at South Mountain Reservation in West Orange, New Jersey. Scheduled for July 26, 2025, it offers 12-hour, 6-hour, and 3-hour race options. The course features four distinct trail loops, with participants drawing colored golf balls before each loop to determine their next route, adding an element of chance and strategy.
A black golf ball allows runners to choose their loop. After 6 PM, runners decide whether to continue drawing loops or switch to a ½-mile mini loop. The event supports the mental health nonprofit Bigger Than The Trail and includes family-friendly activities and special discounts for various groups.
