NSRF NYC Strawberry Fest 5K & Half Marathon
The event takes place at Prospect Park in Brooklyn and offers two distance options: a 5K and a Half Marathon. Registration is not yet open.
- 5K USATF certified single loop
- Half Marathon four loop course
The 5K uses a USATF certified loop in Prospect Park with the 5K start located south of Duck Island adjacent to St. Paul’s Place, about 365 meters northeast of the finish line. The half marathon starts at the Grecian Shelter, known as the Peristyle, and requires runners to pass the finish line mats each loop so split times and photos sync. The half marathon has a cutoff time of 2:45 hours and runners must begin their final lap by 2:05 hours.
On-site amenities include an informal bag check area, restrooms within a short walk of the start and finish, hydration at the finish, and post-race refreshments provided by All Round Foods and Waterloo Sparkling Water. Participants receive a medal and a tee. Bib pickup is available at the Grecian Shelter and mailing is available for a $10 fee if registered at least ten days in advance; mailed bibs are distributed before the event.
A virtual option allows participants to log a time and up to five photos during a one-week window starting on the event’s first day. Live online, email, and text results are provided along with same-day finish line photos. Street parking is available on Parkside Avenue and public transportation serves Prospect Park.
One hundred percent of donations benefit the Never Stop Running Foundation, a 501(c)(3) that supports special needs and youth running programs and athlete development. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
