Brooklyn Mothers Day
Brooklyn Mothers Day is a CityTri Runs race held on Sunday, May 9, 2027, at The Peristyle near Park side avenue and Parade Pl in Prospect Park, Brooklyn. The event offers three distances: a half marathon, a 10K, and a 5K, and it supports the nonprofit Every Mother Counts.
The course uses Prospect Park’s main drive, closed to cars for the morning and shaded by trees for most of its length. The loop is rolling rather than flat, with about 140 feet of climbing on each lap. Water stations appear three times per loop and provide water, Gatorade, and gels. The route shares the road with a bike lane; participants are asked to remain in the runner’s lane for the whole race.
Race logistics include race-day-only bib pickup starting 45 minutes before each start; participants must show the check-in code from their confirmation to receive a bib and timing tag. Bag check and portable toilets are available at the start area. Chip timing provides live results and per-lap splits, and race-day photos and video are posted to participant pages.
Every finisher receives a finisher medal and a tech shirt. Awards include overall plaques for the top three men and women in each distance and age-group medals for the top three in each age group. Rules require wearing the bib on the front, signing standard waivers, a minimum age of six, and no coaches, baby-joggers, bikes, dogs, inline skates, or skateboards on course.
