Sunday, May 1, 2016 • Fort Lee, NJ • Course Map Filled with hills, trees and views of the Hudson River in this serene park that lies just a few miles from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan in nearby New York City, the Rock the River: Palisades Half Marathon takes runners along along an out-and-back route that unfolds entirely within New Jersey’s Palisades Interstate Park.
