Dirty Sock 10K Run/Walk
The event is a 10K run and walk held on the Babylon Village trail network near Grade School and local trails at 169 Park Ave, Babylon, NY. It is part of the USATF Long Island Track and Field Cross Country Series and is one of the few 10K races on Long Island.
The course follows village trails past Southard’s Pond, moves north toward Belmont State Park, loops around Belmont Lake, and returns through wooded trails to the finish. The course is USATF certified and sanctioned, is mostly flat, includes water stops, and contains roughly 0.2 mile of paved surfaces alongside uneven terrain.
Participant amenities include complimentary beer and snacks for entrants with a racing bib, guaranteed socks for the first 500 runners, and post race refreshments. Results and media features include live online, email and text results, free video, and same day finish line photos.
Awards include prizes for the top three male and female overall finishers, a Joe Farina award for the first male and female Babylon Village resident finisher, and top three awards by age group across standard divisions. Age group winners receive a free class at both Equity Reformer Studio and Babylon CrossFit valued at $55.
Proceeds benefit the Babylon Rotary Foundation to support local food pantries and soup kitchens. Registration is not yet open and the organizer offers notifications for when registration opens. Bib pickup is available before race day at Babylon CrossFit and on race day through event staff; bib number lookup is provided as needed.
