This (almost) 4-mile course starts at the corner of First Ave and East Main Street. The first mile winds through the historic Manasquan Inlet with river views, then opens onto the boardwalk and the ocean. From there it turns inland toward Stockton Lake before heading back through the Norman Rockwell streets at the center of town. You'll finish at historic Leggett's, a Manasquan staple since 1935.
If 4 miles is too much, there's a 2-mile walk with the same start and finish.
100% of proceeds support adults on the autism spectrum, 21 and older, in accredited programs that build the skills and job placements they need to live independent, purposeful lives.
A big thank you to our partner, Leggett's Sand Bar!
