GFNY World Championship NYC
21 May 2023
An authentic Chesapeake town on Maryland’s storied Eastern Shore, Cambridge has a rich maritime tradition, including shipbuilding, sailing, fishing, crabbing, waterfowling and more. With an outdoors & nature-loving culture, a rich history, charming small towns, and a slower and friendlier pace of life, Cambridge and Dorchester County offer you a wonderful opportunity for a getaway.
Cambridge is located near the metropolitan areas of Washington, DC and Baltimore, yet when you arrive to Cambridge, you’ll enjoy its small town charm. The surrounding areas include stunning nature, flora, fauna, local farms, rolling hills and ponds. Highway US-50 is known locally as the “Ocean Gateway,” with the segment running from Choptank River to Ocean City known as the “Sunburst Highway.”
Cambridge has local attractions and activities for the entire family.
LONG COURSE IS A COMPETITION: Only the finishers of the long course are eligible for category rankings and Overall and Podium awards. If you want to race and be ranked in your category, you must complete the long course. Top 10% of finishers in each age group earn a spot in the Qualifier Corral at every GFNY World event.
MEDIUM COURSE IS NOT A COMPETITION: The riders of the medium course will be provided their start-to-finish time, but will not be ranked by finish time. All finish times will be listed in alphabetical order.
THE JERSEY: All riders receive the official GFNY Maryland race jersey, which is mandatory attire at the race. The jersey is designed in NYC and Made in Italy.
CHIP TIMING: GFNY Maryland is a timed race. Each athlete has their own timing chip, which starts right after you cross the start line and stops when you cross the finish line. Timing results will be available at gfny.cc/results.
FINISHER MEDAL: Every GFNY Maryland finisher receives a medal, no matter which distance they complete. All finishers also earn a “Finish” towards their 3x2023 GFNY medal or the 10x medal. Go to gfny.com/medals for more information on GFNY’s multi-finisher medals.
