Ken Morgan Memorial Clove Run's 10M

About this race

The Ken Morgan Memorial Clove Run's 10M, held annually on August 17th in Castleton, NY, is a cherished fixture in the local running community. While specific details on its founding are not provided, the "Memorial" in its title suggests a history rooted in honoring a significant figure, likely Ken Morgan, and has evolved into a well-established event that runners anticipate each year. The "Event Type: 6" is not a standard classification and may refer to internal event categories or a specific distance not explicitly stated beyond the "10M" in the title. Participants can anticipate a challenging yet scenic 10-mile race through the picturesque landscapes of Castleton. The terrain is expected to feature a mix of surfaces, potentially including paved roads, gravel paths, and possibly some moderate trail sections within the Clove area. Runners should be prepared for variable weather conditions common in mid-August, which could range from warm and humid to cooler with potential for rain. The "Clove Run" likely implies a route that takes advantage of any natural valleys or gorges in the area, offering unique environmental features and potentially some elevation changes that contribute to the race's character.
