Dyspraxia DCD America 5K
The inaugural Dyspraxia DCD America 5K is scheduled for November 7, 2026, at Rockaway Park, New York. The event takes place on the Rockaway Beach boardwalk, featuring an out-and-back route that follows the shoreline. Participants run on a flat, paved surface with views of the Atlantic Ocean.
The event offers a single distance:
- 5K (3.1 miles)
The course is designed to be accessible for various abilities due to its flat profile on the boardwalk. All participants receive a finisher medal and a race-day T-shirt. Recognition is provided for top performers, with special awards designated for the first, second, and third-place finishers within specific age groups.
Registration is open to both adults and children 12 and under, with a price increase scheduled after August 28, 2026. The race serves as a community gathering to raise awareness for the dyspraxia and Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) community. The event starts at Beach 108 on the Boardwalk and utilizes the coastal environment for a scenic competition held entirely on the pedestrian walkway.
