Details
Run entirely within Delaware's White Clay Creek State Park and White
Clay Preserve, a 3,300-acre park spanning from the Pennsylvania border
to the city limits of Newark, the Trail Triple Crown races take place
on moderately hilly terrain in the park's mixed hardwood forest areas,
along with streams and upland meadows. Mostly single-track trails, the
course also includes sections of dirt roads and only a few hundred feet
of pavement for road crossings.
The Triple Crown Trail "Da' Half Marathon" starts at 7:30 AM and takes
runners on a course that links four trail loops with short out-and-back
trail connectors. Come well-trained and prepared -- the course features
elevation changes from 90 feet to 350 feet above sea level.

month.
