About CTM

Unlike most level-course 5Ks, “Conquer the Mountain” takes on Jugtown Mountain bordering Hunterdon and Warren counties. The course is easily walkable for all activity levels, but offers a challenge for runners who want to test themselves with an uphill course.

What’s most important... all proceeds go directly to local volunteer fire and rescue squads, including Phillipsburg, Greenwich, Lopatcong and Pattenburg Emergency Rescue Squads, as well as Stewartsville, Pattenburg, Harmony, Huntington and Quakertown Fire Houses.

“These heroes put their lives on the line for us every day,” says Cheryl Fuhrmann, organizer of the race and owner of the lead sponsor, U.S. Family Martial Arts Center of Phillipsburg. “They are truly our guardian angels.”

The race is hosted by U.S. Family Martial Arts of Phillipsburg and the New Jersey State Police Barracks of Perryville and Washington.
