NJ Turnpike Five
The NJ Turnpike Five is a 5K road race held on the New Jersey Turnpike at the Exit 15X Helix in Secaucus. The course is an out-and-back route that ascends the helix, proceeds toward the tollbooths, and returns along the same stretch of roadway. The event is organized as a run/walk.
Entry options include a standard registration that covers an event t-shirt, race bib, and finisher medal, and a pre-event mailing option that provides the t-shirt and race bib before race day; finisher medals are distributed after the race. A separate on-site registration option is offered the day of the event. Awards are given to the top three male and top three female finishers.
Participants are asked to check in by crossing Paul Amico Way and following the sidewalk and breezeway into the Secaucus Junction parking lot. The primary event location is listed as 650 Paul Amico Way, Secaucus, NJ.
Proceeds support Special Olympics New Jersey, which provides year-round sports training, competition, leadership opportunities, and health screenings to athletes with intellectual disabilities. The event lists sponsors and community partners in support of the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
