A Run to Remember - Half Marathon & 5K
A Run to Remember is a charity running event in Sylvan Beach, NY on July 19, 2026, held in memory of loved ones lost July 17, 2025. The event is organized by The Matt & Monica Podcast and directs 100% of proceeds to the Sylvan Beach and North Bay Fire Departments.
The event offers two distances:
- Half Marathon 13.1 miles
- 5K 3.1 miles
Both courses use an identical out-and-back lakeside route that departs from and returns to Oneida Lake Brew Haus. The route passes local landmarks including Bridge Street and the village amusement area, follows Lakeshore Road and Route 13, continues along Vienna Road, and reaches a turnaround at North Bay Fireman's Field before retracing the route to the finish.
Race day logistics include check-in at Oneida Lake Brew Haus for bibs, timing chips, and race swag; the first 150 registrants receive an event T-shirt. A push-up challenge is offered during the half marathon : eight sets of 50 push-ups with a buy-in fee. The day concludes with an after party at Oneida Lake Brew Haus featuring live music, food, and drinks. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
