10K Loop Training Run begins 8 AM
#QDRLTR2
The 2nd of 3 Training Runs for your Spring Marathon takes us to a park we have long awaited to mark our debut in; Alley Pond Park!
As you know, our primary goals are to present runners with new opportunities to train for Spring Season Marathons, and have them spread across our beloved Borough.
Alley Pond Park has a ridge of hills, famously known for strengthening even the most seasoned runner.
You decide if you would like to run one, two or three loops! Our staff and volunteer team will be stationed and lively along the route for the duration of your run.

DEETS
This is a Timed, Non-Scored, Marathon Training Run consisting of 2Mile Loops.
COURSE:
- You will start out facing the Elementary School and Basketball Courts, then following the main road towards the Long Island Motortrail- almost immediately you’ll climb the first hill, then head behind the baseball field and under the Clearview Expressway.
- You’ll then make a right turn, re-entering the Motortrail Park Lane and make a left turn.
- Following the left turn, you’ll gradually climb- then descend for approximately 2 miles.
- You’ll then run underneath the Grand Central Parkway, then make a small series of turns by the Alley Pond Sports Center, leading you back to the Motortrail where you will retrace your steps and return to the Start/Finish for the completion of the loop.
