About the race
The Queens St. Patrick's event in Flushing Meadows Corona Park offers timed road races with both in-person and virtual participation. Distances include:
- 5K: one loop, USATF certified.
- Half Marathon: four loops of the 5K course, USATF certified.
- Free kiddie fun run also takes place.
Participants receive a Queens St. Patrick's finisher medal and event tee. The race provides an informal bag check area, bathrooms within a short walk of the start and finish, and hydration at the finish line. High quality refreshments are supplied by event partners.
The half marathon includes live time tracking with predicted finish times and split photos. Half marathon runners must run through the finish line at the end of each loop for accurate split and finish timing. On-course bottled water and electrolyte hydration is available for half marathon participants only. A 3 hour 15 minute cutoff applies to the half marathon; course support follows that pace.
Bibs can be mailed for an additional fee if requested in advance; in-person bib pickup is available on event day. Virtual entrants may log results and upload photos within a set window; race items for virtual participants begin shipping at event timeframes noted by the organizer.
Age-group recognition is awarded across standard male, female, and nonbinary categories and multiple age brackets. Event proceeds benefit the Never Stop Running Foundation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
