10th Annual SAFE DATING CHALLENGE
Presented by ADP


THE EVENT

What's the recipe for a fun and successful road race? I think you'll all agree that you need a great course, terrific amenities, a worthy cause and lots of fun. Well, the SAFE DATING CHALLENGE has it all.

The course at the College of St. Elizabeth in Convent Station is scenic, traffic free and runs through the beautiful college campus and on the paved Traction Line Trail. Amenities? You will be very impressed from the giveaways to the great food. And just wait until you see our Safe Dating Challenge sweatshirt. REMEMBER, I SAID VERY IMPRESSED.

And, the event will help to raise awareness of safe dating and healthy relationships.

So, join us at the noon starting line on Sunday, October 28th.  It's Halloween so costumes are encouraged!  Easy to find via Routes 287 or 24. You can choose from our 5K run, the 1.5 mile walk or the Kids Races for ages 2-12.
