🏁 Day of Check-in

🌅 Course Description

Your journey runs on the park driveway and town roads the first mile. Entering the Audubon Center, you will run 7/10 mi on a hard packed grass path around the perimeter of the property. Be prepared to enjoy a beautiful view of Long Island Sound, Stratford Harbor, butterflies, birds, and more! This will lead you back on the driveway and onto the “Two Roads Trail” which is again, hard packed grass and some gravel. The fun begins just after mile two! The course drops down to beach level, and from there you’ll run completely on the sand along the water back to the finish.

The finish will be on the sand/hard packed grass area near the pavilion. Each participant's finish time will be “Chip” recorded as they cross the finish line. As participants finish, they will receive their Two Roads medal and a text message and/or email with their finishing time!

💧 Water Stop

There will be a water stop a little after the halfway point inside the Audubon grounds. We also encourage everyone to run with a water bottle as temps can be very hot during the summer. Please be respectful and use the trash cans located at this water stop!

⚠️ Tips and Notes

• Safety: For your safety, participants should always remain to the LEFT side of the road indicated by cones, signs, or volunteers.
• Instructions: Please follow all instructions of the course marshals and only cross a street when instructed to do so by the course volunteers.
• Finish Line: Once crossing the finish line, please keep moving towards the pavilion to allow room for other runners.
• Strollers: Participants are welcome to run with strollers, but please note that the last leg of the race is on the sand.

🎉 Post Race Celebration

Let’s not forget the best part of the race, the post-race celebration! Once you cross the finish line, join us back at the pavilion for a post-race celebration! There will be music, health-related vendors, and of course, delicious beer! Stay tuned for more information on vendors, food truck, and musical performances!
