Lincoln Tunnel Challenge 5K

The Lincoln Tunnel Challenge 5K is truly one of the nation's most unique races. This USATF-certified 5K (3.1 miles) takes participants primarily underwater, spanning two states. The race begins and ends at the toll booths in Weehawken, NJ, featuring a cone turnaround on the New York City side of the tunnel. All proceeds benefit Special Olympics New Jersey, supporting over 22,000 athletes and Unified partners.

The Township of Weehawken is proud to host this exciting event, where thousands from the tri-state area will run or walk through the Lincoln Tunnel for a great cause! The Township will once again sponsor The Weehawken Home Team. Join the Weehawken Home Team today to help support Special Olympics New Jersey!
