NJ MileSplit

I keep hearing about this, I head there cutting off the path to go behind the boathouse and instead you go on a straight path right in front of it. Is this true??

Hi is the link for detail on the course change

yeah i raced there on monday, the only change is by the boathouse, instead of running all the way around it, you run on a paved dam in front of it.

i read somewhere that the new altered course at garret mountain measures out to a true 5k. is this not what the course is supposed to measure anyways? then how much more have we been running when it was not altered by constructuion?

My understanding is that the old course (pre construction) measured at 3.19 miles
