The course runs through the neighborhood between East Chester and Foxhall Streets, follows Clifton Avenue with hills on both sides, and passes twice through Hutton Park. The route includes a scenic view of the Catskills. Start and finish are at the Morning Star building, formerly Good Shepherd School, at the corner of East Chester and Highland.
The event is Race 9 in the Onteora Runners’ Club Grand Prix for 2026. There are special awards and prizes, and T-shirts for the first 100 registrants. Entry fees are $25 for adults (19 and over) and $15 for youth (18 and under), with an option to add a donation; the youth rate is applied automatically at checkout. Day of in-person registration is available at the event location.
A virtual 5K option is available for participants who cannot attend in person; virtual runs may be completed between October 17 and October 24 and times must be submitted by October 25.
