Thompson Park

This is a great course. The easiest way there is from Exit 109 off the Garden State Parkway, and head west onto Newman Springs Road (right off the exit ramp coming south from Hoboken). After passing Brookdale Community College on your left, you'll see a Thompson Park entrance also on your left. DO NOT enter there; continue past the Newman Springs entrance and turn left on Cross Road, then turn left on Longbridge Road. Proceed 1/3 mile to the rear entrance of Thompson Park (on your left) and enter there. Go straight in 1/4 mile and park by the house (you'll see all of the runners). The entire distance from the GS Parkway to the entrance off Longbridge Road is approximately 4 miles.

Tatum Park

Take Exit 114 off the Garden State Parkway, and head east onto Red Hill Road (if heading south on GSP from Hoboken, take a left off the Ramp). You will come to a light/fork almost immediately after crossing back over the GSP, and you should take a left there onto Van Schoick Road. The boundary of the Park is actually on your right at this point, and you should proceed straight (1 mi+-) until you get to Holland Road, where you turn right. The park entrance is on the right hand side of Holland Road approx. ½ mile from the turn. Pull into the Park’s road which leads to a former residence on the property and ample parking. Registration is right there.

Wolf Hill Recreation Area

This is a new park recently added to the Monmouth County Park systems. Take the Garden State Parkway to Exit 105, Hwy. 36 east to Eatontown Rd. north (use jughandle). Continue ½-mile and turn right onto Crescent Way. Parking lot is on the left.

Holmdel Park

Take Exit 114 off the Garden State Parkway, and head west (if heading South from Hoboken, take a right off the exit ramp). Follow Red Hill Road a short distance to the first intersection and turn right (more than 90 degree turn) onto Everett Road. Follow Everett Road past the Bell Labs facility on your left, and shortly thereafter take a left onto Roberts Road, which runs into and ends at Long Street. At that junction, the Park is directly in front of you and the entrance to the Park's parking lot is within sight. Registration is in the parking area.
