Distances
- Half Marathon

Course details note that the 5K is a one-loop out-and-back along the shore. The Half Marathon is four loops with two U-turns; runners must pass both turnaround checkpoints on each loop for accurate splits and finish times. Wheelchair participants are welcome, though the course includes several tight 180-degree turns that may not be ideally suited for wheelchair racers.
Amenities listed for participants include an informal bag check area, nearby bathrooms, and hydration at the finish line. Finishers receive a medal and a T-shirt, and every participant is provided a mini apple pie. Refreshments are supplied by All Round Foods and Waterloo Sparkling Water. Limited public street parking is available on Bay Ridge Avenue and Shore Road; public transportation is encouraged. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
