About the race

The Big Forest Half, 10K, and 5K takes place at Bass River State Forest in Tuckerton, New Jersey. The festival offers three distances: Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K, with a forested, lake-adjacent course that features paved roads, hard-packed paths, and a wooden boardwalk through a cathedral-like pine and cedar habitat by Lake Absegami. The course uses loops: 5K in one loop, 10K in two, and the Half in four loops.

The event emphasizes a fan-friendly atmosphere and full support, including three aid stations, live timing and tracking, finish-line livestreams and photos, big finisher medals, tech shirts, post-race food and music, and an awards ceremony. Camp the night before for a weekend experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
