Organiser's description

NEW NAME, SAME FUN EVENT!

To distinguish this important fundraising event from other Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (DLNHC) events that aren't fundraisers, we've changed the name, but the event is still the same! NEW THIS YEAR: You'll get a $10 discount if you sign up for two events, for example, walk and bike!

Like past years, the main level challenges runners and walkers to complete at least four cumulative half-marathon (13.1-mile) distances, a total of 52.4 miles. Cyclists are challenged to complete the length of the D&L Trail, a total of 165 miles during the month (or 41.25 miles a week). These are great goals for anyone just starting out or trying to get into a regular exercise routine. You can accrue the miles anywhere; they don't have to be on the D&L Trail itself.

The super level challenges avid runners and walkers to complete a marathon (26.2 miles) every week for a total of 104.8 miles and challenges avid cyclists to complete two lengths of the D&L Trail (330 miles). This challenge is for experienced walkers, runners, and cyclists who've crushed the event in past years or motivated newcomers.

Miles can be accrued over several workouts on the 165-mile D&L Trail or somewhere else, any time between April 1 and April 30. You select where, when, and how, then register your miles easily on RunSignups website. We'll be giving out weekly incentives to motivate you to log your miles!

100% of proceeds from the D&L Trail-A-Thon will support trail building and programming along the wonderful D&L Trail. If you love the D&L Trail and our region's great outdoor areas, we ask you to join us in this years event. Please consider creating your own fundraiser in support of the D&L Trail too! It's easy to do! On the donate page, choose "Become a Fundraiser" and share with family and friends!

A real-time Leader Board will engage your competitiveness. You can race against a personal mileage goal or simply participate for fun and fitness. No matter where you are on the Leader Board, as long as you log at least one mile a week, you'll be eligible for incentive rewards.

***Disclaimer: Do not run, walk, or bike on unsafe or closed roads (trails, roads, parks). Follow all guidelines and requirements set forth by local, state, and federal agencies. This is a virtual event only, not a mass gathering. ***
