NSRF Hot Cocoa Crush 5K and 10K in Queens
The event is a road race held in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Queens, scheduled in February 2026. The start and finish are located on the north side of the Queens Theater. Parking is noted at the Queens Museum building on Meridian Road, within walking distance of the theater.
The course uses repeated loops. The 5K course comprises two loops and the 10K uses four loops of the 5K course. 10K participants must cross the finish line mats on each loop for accurate split timing and synced photos.
Amenities include an informal bag check area in the staging zone, bathrooms within a few minutes walk, and porto-johns near the finish line. Hydration will be provided at the finish. High quality refreshments are supplied by All Round Foods and Waterloo Sparkling Water. Live online, email, and text results are offered, along with same-day finish line photos and free video.
A virtual participation option is available. Virtual participants have from the first day of the event and a full week to log a time and upload up to five photos. Bib mailing is available for a fee if registered at least ten days before the event; virtual bibs are mailed when race gear ships, with a short mailing delay for late registrants.
Top finish recognition is given overall and by age group. Proceeds benefit the Never Stop Running Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization that supports athletic and charitable events and athlete development. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
