NSRF The Dad Bod 5K & 10K
The event stages 5 kilometre and 10 kilometre races on the Rockaway Beach boardwalk in Queens, New York, held on Munsee Lenape and Canarsie lands. The course is an out-and-back loop: one loop equals 5 km, two loops equal 10 km. 10K participants must run through the finish-line mats on each loop so split and finish times record accurately.
Distances:
- 5 km out-and-back loop
- 10 km two loops, passing finish mats each loop
On-course amenities include hydration at the turnaround and the finish line, public water fountains along the route, and porto-johns near the finish with additional public restrooms along the boardwalk. An informal bag-check area will be available in the staging area; organizers do not accept responsibility for belongings. Post-race refreshments are provided by All Round Foods and Waterloo Sparkling Water.
Entry options include an in-person race and a virtual option. Virtual participants have from the event start day and a full week to log a time and upload up to five photos; event items for virtual entrants begin shipping on the first day of the event. Bib pickup is available in person beginning one hour before the event at the finish line on Beach 72nd Street, or can be mailed for a $10 fee if registration occurs at least ten days in advance. Bibs should be worn on the mid-torso, visible and secured with four pins or equivalent.
Age-group recognition is awarded to top finishers overall and within standard age categories from 14 and under through 90 plus. A portion of proceeds benefits the Never Stop Running Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit; 100 percent of donations and fundraising directly impact the foundation. Live online, email, and text results will be available along with same-day finish line video and photos. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
