35th NOT QUITE FALL CLASSIC 4 MILE: Sunday August 26th  at 8:30 AM

About the Not Quite Fall Classic 4 Mile: Held on Labor Day until 2009, this race is now on the last Sunday in August!  It gets hot in August, so the race is held early, 8:30 AM.  The course was recently changed to follow the Firecracker 4 Miler path through Nomahegan Park in Cranford.  This move from a 5 mile race to a 4 mile race has received much support in the running community.  Like the Hangover, this course is fast, flat, SHADY and scenic. Traffic is controlled and water stops and mile splits are available on the course.   Ample post-race refreshments await you at the end.

Reminder: No Strollers, Skates, or Dogs  are allowed in the race as noted in the waiver on both the Race Application and Online Registration websites.  Those who choose not to follow these safety procedures will be disqualified from the race.

 

Registration for the 2012 Not Quite Fall Classic 4 Mile will be in the Summer of 2012.  Application links will be activated and Contact Information will be listed at that time.

 

LOCATION: Nomahegan Park  1034 Springfield Ave  Cranford, NJ 07016

 

DRIVING DIRECTIONS: From the GSP North or South: get off at Exit 137.  At the bottom of the ramp turn right onto North Avenue.   At the 2nd light (from the North the 3rd light) turn right for the beginning of Springfield Ave.  Nomahegan Park is to the right and Union County College is to the left at the 3rd light on Springfield Ave.  VERY limited parking at Nomahegan.   Abundant parking available at Union County College.
