NSRF Great Easter Basket 5K & 10K
This event is held in April 2026 at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, NY. It offers both in-person and virtual participation and is presented as an annual spring run that takes place rain or shine.
Participants can choose from these distances:
- 5K
- 10K
The 5K course is USATF certified and follows a single loop that passes landmarks such as the Unisphere and the Fountain of the Planets. The 10K is two loops of the same course; 10K participants must cross the finish line at the end of each loop for accurate timing and photos. Start and finish are located near the Queens Theater.
On-site amenities include a bunny tee and a finisher medal, finish-line hydration, bathrooms within a short walk, and an informal bag check area. High quality refreshments are provided by event partners. Pace teams are available: 5K pacers from about 20 to 30 minutes and 10K pacers from about 40 minutes to 1 hour 5 minutes.
Virtual participants have a one-week window from the event start to log times and may receive race items by mail. Bib mailing is available for an additional fee if arranged in advance. Donations benefit the Never Stop Running Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
