About the Squatchy Onesiefest

The Squatchy Onesiefest sends runners out in costume on the trails of Ramapo Valley County Reservation. It is a trail race, so expect roots and natural terrain rather than pavement, and the atmosphere leans toward the playful side of things. A portion of proceeds goes to a regional trail conservation group that maintains the land underfoot.

Runners are encouraged to show up in a onesie, and plenty do. The reservation is the kind of place where trails wind through woods, so arrive ready for uneven ground and leave the road shoes at home.

Common Questions About the Squatchy Onesiefest

Will I finish last at the Squatchy Onesiefest?

Almost certainly not. Half the 5K field finished slower than 52:46, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:51:02, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Squatchy Onesiefest a good first 5K?

It is a small race (143 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 5K, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Squatchy Onesiefest?

The 5K winner ran 26:37 while the median finisher took 52:46. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
