2K for 2-K : Fort Tryon Park
2K for 2-K is a free, family-friendly community event held at Fort Tryon Park in Upper Manhattan. The offering includes a 2K (2 kilometer) family run and walk for participants ages 2 and up, plus short kids dashes for children ages 2 to 11. All participants must be registered.
The event features a festival area with physical activities and games for families; registration is required only for the physical activities. Participants receive a lunch bag while supplies last. Volunteer opportunities are eligible for a plus one race credit; the event itself is not eligible for a plus nine race credit and will not be scored.
Course routing for the family run and walk follows Margaret Corbin Drive north, a slight right onto Fort Tryon Place, an underpass beneath Margaret Corbin Drive, then the internal lane to the finish.
