Scott thinks he can run it in 20 hours.“What’s unique about this race is, on paper, it looks like this fairly flat race,” said Scott, who has run two previous 100-mile races. “But it’s a pretty relentless course with the sand.

She hopes the event will draw attention to the Pinelands National Reserve, which spans portions of 56 communities in seven New Jersey counties, totaling about one million acres of hamlets, farms, forests and wetlands.
Kline said the race is a family affair, run by her, her partner, John Swanson, and their children — as well as 50 volunteers who will staff 10 aid stations along the Batona Trail. She took over the Batona race from its previous organizer in 2019 with the idea of expanding it to 100 miles, but in between has organized other ultra-runs along the trail. The New Jersey Devil 100 miler has been sanctioned by USA Track & Field and is a qualifier for the, which claims to be the world’s oldest 100-mile race, first run in 1977. Kline had to get multiple permits from state and local governments.
