Sirens and Sneakers 5K

🏃‍♀️ Event Overview

The Coffee Potter is proud to present the 2nd annual Sirens and Sneakers 5K at Long Valley Day. Sirens and Sneakers will take place at Ort Farms in beautiful and historic Long Valley, New Jersey. Runners will be treated to beautiful views of the valley and mountains while touring an iconic piece of Long Valley history. Sirens and Sneakers aims to raise funds that will provide additional resources and training opportunities to volunteer first responders in Long Valley. This is to include the Long Valley First Aid Squad and Fire Departments.

🏞️ The Course and Terrain

• Mixed Terrain: Runners should expect to be on mixed terrain due to Ort Farms being an active and working farm.
• Course Distance: The course will consist of two laps for a total distance of 5 kilometers.
• Weather Considerations: Sirens and Sneakers is a rain or shine event. Runners should consider the terrain and ensure that it is appropriate for their fitness and skill levels.
