NSRF The Awesome 80's Half Marathon & 5K
This event is a run/walk held at Prospect Park in Brooklyn, New York, with staging at the Grecian Center, also called the Peristyle. The event offers both in-person and virtual participation and provides race apparel and a finisher medal.
Distances:
- Half Marathon: four laps of the USATF-certified 5K loop; cutoff time 2:45 hrs, runners must begin their final lap by 2:05 hrs.
- 5K: one lap of the certified 5K loop; the 5K start is south of Duck Island near St. Paul’s Place, approximately 365 meters northeast of the finish line.
Course and logistics are centered on the Peristyle, which serves as the finish area and bib pickup location. An informal bag check area is available in the staging area; event staff cannot accept responsibility for belongings. Restrooms are a few minutes' walk from the start and finish. Hydration is provided at the finish line, with refreshments supplied by named vendors.
Virtual participants have a window from the event start day through the following week to log times and may upload up to five photos; virtual bibs and items begin shipping on the event start day and allow typical mail transit times. Live online results, same-day finish line photos, and video are offered.
A portion of event proceeds benefit the Never Stop Running Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit supporting athletic and charitable programs. Age group recognition is awarded across a wide set of age categories and overall placements. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
