CHCF Hispanic Heritage 5K Run/Walk
The Committee for Hispanic Children and Families (CHCF) organizes a community 5K run and walk in Astoria Park, Queens, with both in-person and virtual participation options. The in-person course covers 5K as four loops around the park. Parking information is provided by Astoria Park resources.
In-person participants receive a finisher medal and access to live, text, and email results. Free finish line photos and same-day video highlights are available. Personalized bibs are offered to participants who register about three weeks in advance. An informal area in the staging zone can be used to leave belongings, but the event organization does not accept responsibility for lost or stolen items. Bathrooms are a few minutes' walk from the start and finish, and hydration and refreshments are provided at the finish area, including Waterloo Sparkling Water.
Virtual participants can log their time during the event window and upload up to five photos; bibs for virtual entrants are mailed and may take several days to arrive if registration is late. Bib pickup for in-person participants is handled at the event entrance near 24th Avenue and 19th Street, with guidance to wear the bib on the mid-torso for best read rates.
Age-group recognition is awarded to top finishers overall and across standard age brackets, extending through the 90 and over category. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
