Description

2012 Redding Road Race:

All races begin and end at stunning New Pond Farm in West Redding, Connecticut with the half marathon starting at 8:00am and the 5K and 10K starting at 8:15am. All races are on bucolic country roads that have runners passing a horse farm, a waterfall, a rail road bridge, wetlands, streams, lakes, a historic schoolhouse circa 1789, while finishing in beautiful New Pond Farm.The Kids' Fun runs of one mile and a half mile (both entirely on New Pond Farm grounds) will occur following the completion of the other three races (approximately 11am).

Runners of every race will receive a gorgeous, in-house designed, 3" finishers medal, a 50/50 wicking, race t-shirt and numerous other special surprise race goodies. It is our goal to have the Redding Road Race be the friendliest and best supported race of it's kind in this area, or any area, for that matter, while benefitting New Pond Farm and it's wonderful programs.

Course Info


 The course can be categorized as rolling (with no hills that would be classified as long or cruel), but, there are also plenty of miles of flat running, so runners should have no problem settling into a comfortable pace.

Directions

From Norwalk/Wilton via Route 7
Follow Route 7 through Wilton and in Georgetown you will come to the junction of Route 7 and Route 107. You will turn right onto Route 107. Follow Route 107 until you come to the junction of 107 and Route 53. Bear left onto Route 53 and follow it for about 2.5 miles. In this stretch of road, you will pass The Redding Roadhouse on your right, Mark Twain Library on your left and John Read Middle School on your right. Take your first left after the school onto Umpawaug Road. Proceed slowly on Umpawaug for .4 miles and take the second right onto Marchant Road. New Pond Farm has the first three driveways on your right. We have a white farm house and yellow barns. Please pull into the third driveway and park in the gravel lot
