Event summary

Get ready to step back in time and take part in the NJ Revolutionary Battles Virtual Challenge, running from October 15 to November 30, 2024! This exciting event invites participants to join a unique virtual journey inspired by New Jersey's rich history, traversing the paths of iconic battles such as the Battle of Monmouth and the Battle of Paulus Hook. Choose from three challenging distances: the 45-mile route from Monmouth to Paulus Hook, the 78-mile trek from Valley Forge to Monmouth, or the ultimate 123-mile relay combining all three historic routes.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or a casual walker, you have 45 days to complete your chosen distance at your own pace, logging your miles from the comfort of your home or favorite outdoor spaces. All participants will receive a stylish shirt and a commemorative medal, with the added bonus of connecting medals for those who also participate in the Washington's Crossing Virtual Challenge starting December 1. Join us for a memorable experience that combines fitness, history, and community spirit!

Organiser's description

Join both the NJ Revolutionary Battles Virtual Challenge starting Oct 15 and Washington's Crossing Virtual Challenge starting Dec 1 and get $5 off each registration! The Medals for both virtual challenges connect to give you a unique memorabilia.

NJ Revolutionary Battles Virtual Challenge: Inspired by our New Jersey culture, follow the troops from Valley Forge to the Battle of Monmouth up to Fort Paulus Hook.

Battle of Monmouth: In the summer of 1778 General Washington marched his troops from Valley Forge up to the site of the Battle of Monmouth, where he famously lost his temper to his second in command, Charles Lee who had retreated at first. Washington pushed forward despite the high heat. Many men died due to the heat.

Battle of Paulus Hook: Fought in the summer of 1779, storming the fort at night and forcing the British to loose most of its control over New Jersey the troops took 158 prisoners in what is now downtown Jersey City.

You will have 45 days to complete the distance of your choice, Oct 15, 2024 to Nov 30, 2024. Looking for more miles? Do the Relay team of 1 all by your self!
