NSRF Long Island Lemonade Trail 5K : Blydenburgh County Park
The Never Stop Running Foundation Long Island Lemonade Trail 5K is scheduled for May 23, 2026 at Blydenburgh County Park in Smithtown, NY. The event offers an in-person trail 5K run/walk and a virtual 5K option, plus a free Kiddie Dash for children.
The course combines pavement, dirt roads, and hard-packed vehicle-accessible trails. Amenities listed for participants include hydration at the finish, porta-johns near the finish, and bathrooms within a short walk of the start and finish. An informal bag-check area is available in the staging area. Event refreshments are provided by All Round Foods and Waterloo Sparkling Water. Race shirts are available and a bib-mailing option is offered for an additional fee.
Parking guidance identifies a primary lot near Picnic Areas 1-5 after entering the park from Veteran's Memorial Highway, with secondary parking at the boat launch and additional spaces near the dog park. Participants arriving later may need to pay for park parking or use remote parking and walk to the start.
Online registration options include in-person and virtual entries with varying fees. Virtual participants may upload times and photos during a set window following the start date. Donations collected support the Never Stop Running Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that funds local youth and special needs events and athlete development. Age-group recognition is provided across standard decade ranges with overall top finishers acknowledged. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
