Teams!!!
If you join a team, keep in mind it is NOT a relay. Everyone on the team runs the entire TransDelmarva. The teams option is just a way to encourage people, support people and push people to be competitive in a different way. :) All four team members times are added up for the teams’ results. Being on a team DOES NOT exclude a person from the individual competition or individual podiums.
TransDelmarva Mega Segment 58.91 Miles
Runners… This is the official map of the Mega Segment from The Cove to Assateague. This is for runners who have signed up for the Mega Segment, which means they plan to run the entire TransDelmarva Bay to the Beach challenge at one time. From one end of Delmarva (the bay) to the other side (the beach). When we look at a runner’s time we will look at the elapsed time in the segment. This will include all the running, all the stops, and everything between when you start your watch at the start and when you stop your watch at the end.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GET THE ACTUAL STRAVA SEGMENT FOR THIS TO COUNT. . You can go off course to grab a drink at Royal Farms, set up an aid station at a friend's house off course, stop to eat along the way, use the restroom etc. But DO NOT stop your watch and do get back on course. We will verify your completion based on your map and your elapsed time.
Good Luck. Be safe. Hydrate. Fuel. Be smart. Run with others.
TransDelmarva Segment Leg 1 - The Cove 11.42 Miles
This is the first of nine segments runners will take to run across Delmarva. This starts right at The Cove at beach itself. Yes, at the water. Dip your toes in the water and start your adventure! This first segment will take runners 11.5 miles… all the way to the entrance of Pirate Wharf! It is the first and the longest segment! Enjoy! Be careful. Wear lots of reflective gear and run with lights if it is dark. Invite a friend to run with you…. Point to point runs can be tricky, but you will know this by the end of your journey! Let’s Go!
To Podium for The TransDelmarva Run Segment Challenge (not the Mega Run), you must get the actual Strava segment for this and the other 8 segments.
TransDelmarva Segment Leg 2 - Pirates Wharf 8.27 Miles
This is a great route but be careful. This segment takes you from one Wicomico County park, Pirates Wharf, to another Wicomico County park, Pemberton. If you want some extra miles, run a 5k before your run at Pirates Wharf with a ESRC course or jump into the Pemberton Park and run an extra 5k after your run at The Pemberton 24 Course. This is a wide open segment... meaning there is not much (if any) tree cover and not really a lot of places to stop. So, make sure you hydration and fuel are locked in before you start! Fun stuff!!!! Let's get across Delmarva!
To Podium for The TransDelmarva Run Segment Challenge (not the Mega Run), you must get the actual Strava segment for this and the other 8 segments.
TransDelmarva Segment Leg 3 - Pemberton 5.78 Miles
This is the segment you might want to figure out before going. There are more turns and twists than any of the other segment, but it also has some of the best places to run…. Downtown SBY, Salisbury park, Salisbury Zoo and down Schumaker. If you are doing it all in one bite, this is where you probably want to refuel, eat, run with others and question your life decisions. You will probably want to park in Pemberton Park to start.
To Podium for The TransDelmarva Run Segment Challenge (not the Mega Run), you must get the actual Strava segment for this and the other 8 segments.
