“The river we call Delaware, sometimes a friend, sometimes a fury, cuts between the Garden and the Keystone with an immortal rush. Born before its namesake, it has mountain siblings and, unburdened by age, will remain long after us.

But marvel at the current and you’ll realize it can only stare back; it is only a witness to adventure. Like the Delaware, we flow in the present, but while the river takes the time, we take the moments. The revolutions, the romances, the rallies — they’re ours. And so are the races.

Can we outpace these gallons that gallop from the Catskills to Cape May? The answer is less important than the effort. We can and should still try because it is here, and so are we. How grateful I am to test the impossibility.

The river runs, let’s run with it.”

Two Series. One Brutal Winter Challenge.

We’re teaming up once again with our sister series—the legendary Batona Trail Series, hosted by the Pineland Striders—to bring you a true test of winter endurance.

Complete the 53-mile Batona Trail Series and the 66-mile Delaware River Loop Series, and you’ll join an elite few who have covered 119 miles of cold, grit, and determination. As a reward, you’ll earn a special sticker on your Delaware River Loop Series and Batona Trail Series diploma—proof that you conquered them both.

Last year, only two runners completed the full 119-mile winter gauntlet.

Will you be next?

🚨 80 DAYS TO GO! 🚨
The Delaware River Loop Series returns October 18, and we’re counting down with a look back at our past starting lines—today, it’s Loop #2!

This 7.1-mile route starts at the historic Holcombe-Jimison Farmstead Museum in Lambertville, NJ. From there, runners cross into New Hope, PA, head north along the river, and cross back into New Jersey at Stockton before completing the loop back to the farmstead.

It’s a favorite for the scenery—and the snacks.

When we reshaped the series a few years back, this loop became the second in the journey, building momentum toward the 66-mile finish. And now, spots are filling up even faster than last year, so if you’re thinking about joining the adventure—don’t wait.

🗓 October 18 is closer than it seems.
