About
The Palisades Semi Marathon & 8K Trail takes place in Fort Lee, New Jersey, on September 19, 2027, with two formats: a half marathon (13.1 miles / 21.1 km) and an 8K trail race (5 miles), on a route along the waterfront.
The event has a charitable side, with entries supporting a good cause while showcasing the natural setting of the Palisades, the famous cliffs overlooking the Hudson. It suits half marathoners chasing a performance as well as trail runners looking for a shorter nature course by the river.
