Our winning teams in last year won free beer tickets. Individual Application online at http://www.belmar5.com/belmar.pdf  or go to

The name of our teams are US Olympic Development 1, RVRR Beer Mile Champs, and US Olympic Development 3 [just trying to finish] and our masters, known as “The Legends of Belmar”. We will have runners from several running clubs, including RVRR. JSRC, FARC, CJRR & Sandy Hooker Tri Club and Rumson Hash.

You do not need to be a member of USATF or any club to be on a team. We would like 30 people of different abilities. We try to set up a tent with USA flag on top to share with the Wakefern Shoprite club near the La Yogurt truck.
