The Dirty Sock Run is part of the USATF Long Island Track and Field Cross Country Series and is one of the few 10K races on the Island. Our run is more than just a race. Besides giving runners a chance to compete and have fun, the Run raises desperately needed funds for local food pantries and soup kitchens.
Proceeds from the Race are going to the Babylon Rotary Foundation(501c3) to help support local Food Pantries and Soup Kitchens. You can visit BabylonRotary.com for more information. Thank you for your support!
The race follows the Babylon Village trails from Park Avenue up past Southard’s Pond, snakes further north towards Belmont State Park, wraps around Belmont Lake and then weaves back through the picturesque wooded trails to the finish. The course is mostly flat and offers water stops along the way. Finishers are greeted to the roar of cheering fans and to hearing their names called as they cross the finishing mat by nationally recognized race announcer, Terry Bisogno.
The course is USATF Certified and Sanctioned, fast, mostly flat, picturesque, wooded trails, only 2/10 mile paved. Splits, water stops, road apples, uneven terrain.
Our 10K Run is part of the Long Island Track and Field Cross Country Series. If you are a Cross Country runner and are looking for a very competitive/fun race to help your training program we recommend you try our race.
