Course and race logistics
All courses use an out-and-back boardwalk route along the shore with views of the Verrazano Bridge. The 5K is one loop out and back with a U-turn at the 5K U-Turn sign. The 10K is two loops. The half marathon is four loops with two U-turns; half marathoners have a water/hydration station at the U-turn closest to the start/finish and at the start/finish. Wheelchair participants are welcome, but the course includes several tight 180-degree turns that may not be ideally suited to wheelchair racers. Half marathon cutoff time is 2 hours 45 minutes. Runners must pass both turnaround checkpoints on each loop for accurate splits and finish times.
Amenities and recognition
Amenities include an informal bag check area, bathrooms within a few minutes walk, hydration at the finish, and refreshments provided by All Round Foods and Waterloo Sparkling Water. Participants receive a race tee and finisher medal. Top finishers are recognized overall and by age groups, including categories for 14 & under through 90+.
