The Experience

The NYC Trail Mix, held annually in November, presents a unique opportunity to explore the less-traveled trails of Staten Island. This event, now in its third year, benefits the Greenbelt Conservancy and winds through over 35 miles of trails, with the half marathon covering a significant portion of these remote paths.

The course is designed to minimize road crossings, focusing on single-track sections that showcase the natural history and recovering landscape of New York City's most remote areas. Runners can expect a challenging yet rewarding experience amidst the Greenbelt's extensive network.

Participants can choose from the 50-mile, 50K, or half marathon distances. The event is noted for its steady field trend and offers a chance to connect with nature within the urban sprawl, all while supporting a vital local conservancy.
