Groups of runners (called trains) will run (travel) at pre-determined paces to Grove # 4 in Johnson Park in New Brunswick (the destination station).
Starting in Trenton with small groups of runners who are challenging themselves to go the entire distance, the trains will add additional runners (passengers) who join (board their train) at the speed they want to travel. By the end, one massive group of runners and walkers will be moving in a continual train along the Towpath. Trains will have an official pacer (conductor) to keep these trains on schedule. Trains stop at each station along the way, and from Alexander Road to the end there is fuel (water and/or snacks) available. All trains are scheduled to reach the destination at 11 a.m. to rest, feast and celebrate a day of running camaraderie.
