Katie's Run 5K Run/Walk
Katie's Run 5K Run/Walk is organized by the Katie McBride Foundation in New Hyde Park. The event honors the memory of Katie and raises funds and awareness for Ronald McDonald House Charities New York Metro and family support services.
Distances featured:

The 5K uses chip timing. Online registrants are guaranteed a premium t-shirt. Runners who register by June 7 receive a personalized bib. A post-race BBQ celebration with live entertainment takes place in Memorial Park; a BBQ-only option is available for a separate fee. Raffle tickets are offered at additional cost.
Awards are given for top overall finishers and masters, plus age-group awards across standard age divisions. Additional recognitions include top student and local resident awards eligible for age-group prizes.
Early packet pickup is recommended and is scheduled the day before the event at the rear entrance of New Hyde Park Funeral Home, 506 Lakeville Road, New Hyde Park, NY. Race-day packet pickup is provided at the same location. Early pickup entrants are entered in a raffle for seats to a Mets game.
The course is USATF certified. Live online, email, and text results are available, along with same-day finish-line photos. Registration is not yet open and will open ahead of the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
