CourseSee Map.  Please note the course may be subject to change.

Time Limit: The official time limit is three hours for the half and 45 minutes for the 5K but as a rule of thumb the last thing we unplug is the finish line mat – take your chances after those times .

Awards: Awards and prize money will be given to the top three male and female runners overall in each race as follows: $100 for 1st Place, $50 for 2nd Place, and $25 for 3rd Place.  Age group awards in the 5K will be awarded to the top three in each the following age groups: 9 and under, 10-14, 15-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69 and 70 and over.  Age group awards in the half marathon will be awarded to the top three in each of the following age groups: 19 and under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69 and 70 and over.

Packet Pickup: Pre-race packet pickup TBD.  Race-day packet pickup will be available at the start line until 7:30 AM on race day.

Amenities: A great short-sleeve race shirt and an amazing finisher medal will be included for both races. Bag check and toilets will be provided. Bagels, spreads, and fresh fruit will make up the usual great NYCRUNS post race spread.
