Race Format
The "Go Gobble Gobble Miler" is a combination 1 mile run & 1 mile swim plus food drive!
All activities will take place in and around the Brigantine Aquatic Center, located at 3118 Bayshore Ave, Brigantine, NJ 08203. Both the run and the swim will be timed. A participant's results will be determined by adding the two times into a single overall time!
FOOD DONATION
Volunteers from the True Spirit Coalition, operators of the Brigantine Food Pantry, will be on hand at the Brigantine Aquatic Center from 12pm - 6pm both days of the event accepting donations. We're asking all participants and spectators to consider donating canned goods and non-perishables, as well as personal hygiene items for men and women, cleaning supplies, and toiletries. For more information on acceptable items to donate, visit their webpage here!
RUN
At an assigned time, participants will begin the 1 mile run. The starting point will be 32nd St. South & Revere Blvd. Runners will proceed north on Revere 1/2-mile to 22nd St. South, at which point they will reverse course and head back on Revere 1/2-mile to the finish line at 32nd St. South. (See course map below.) After crossing the finish line, participants will proceed to the Brigantine Aquatic Center to begin the swim portion of the event.
Thank you to the Brigantine Police Department for keeping our runners safe along the course!
SWIM
At an assigned time, participants will begin the 1 mile swim located inside the Brigantine Aquatic Center. Swimmers will be assigned a lane and will swim 66 lengths of the pool--the equivalent of swimming 1 mile!
