Waterbury-Shelton, CT

The Waterbury-Shelton area sits on the Naugatuck River valley with rolling terrain that transitions from flat downtown corridors to moderate hills heading north toward the Litchfield Hills. Local cyclists compete in the ShopRite Nutmeg State Games Criterium and tackle singletrack at Team Red Dragon MTB events, while the PMCX series brings cross racing to the region each fall. Runners find flat towpath routes along the river and Naugatuck State Forest trails for elevation gain, though the area lacks a major marathon anchor.
