WXT Ultra : Titusville, NJ
WXT Ultra is a trail running event that starts and finishes in Washington Crossing Park in Titusville, New Jersey. This edition will use the area near the camp grounds and the soccer fields off Bear Tavern Road because of Visitor Center construction.
Distances
- 50K race
- 25K race
The 25K course is mostly single track and includes about 7.5 miles inside Washington Crossing Park plus short road sections. The 50K begins with the same 7.5 miles as the 25K, then crosses Church Road into the state side of Baldpate and connects to Pleasant Valley Road. It continues around Howell Living Farm via Valley Road to the Dry Run Creek Trail, which leads to the Rock Hopper trail.
Rock Hopper is described as the most technical section. The 50K route includes an out and back segment that enters on the Blue trail, crosses a creek, follows the Red trail to the Orange trail, crosses power lines, then turns around at a road and returns the same way. After exiting Rock Hopper racers cross Route 518 to return to Washington Crossing Park along the earlier route.
Aid stations are located near the Nature Center in Washington Crossing Park, near the Pleasant Valley Road lot at Baldpate, and at the trail head to Rock Hopper at Route 518. Event proceeds benefit the Washington Crossing Park Association. Nearby accommodations include Courtyard by Marriott Ewing Princeton and SpringHill Suites by Marriott Ewing Princeton South which is pet friendly.
