Friends of 4 Parks 5K & 10K Race
The Friends of 4 Parks event on September 27, 2026 is a community run and walk held at Macombs Dam Park in the Bronx. The event offers both 5K and 10K distances.
- 5K
- 10K
The course runs through the four parks of the Historic Lower Grand Concourse: Joyce Kilmer, Franz Sigel, Macombs Dam, and Wendell Foster. The route passes the Lorelai Fountain, the Bronx Supreme Court, and Yankee Stadium. The 5K is one loop. The 10K consists of two loops and runners must cross the finish line for both loops to receive accurate times and splits. Runners are led by cyclists and NYPD support is provided with street closures.
Registration includes a commemorative T shirt while supplies last and personalized race bibs when registered three weeks before the race. The 10K option asks participants to run at a minimum pace of 12 minutes per mile. A general area for bags is provided and monitored by volunteers; the organizers are not responsible for lost or misplaced items.
Results are available online with live updates and same day finish line photos and video. Proceeds benefit Friends of 4 Parks Alliance, a registered 501(c)(3) organization that supports community events in the lower Grand Concourse parks.
