Queens St. Patrick's 5K & Half Marathon (NSRF)
The event takes place in Flushing Meadows Corona Park with start lines and staging near the Queens Theater. Parking is noted at the Queens Museum building and attendees can walk to the Queens Theater from that area. A free kiddie fun run is part of the event.
Distances offered:
- 5K: one loop, USATF certified.
- Half Marathon: four loops of the 5K course; runners must pass through the finish line each loop for accurate splits.
On-course and event services include finish-line hydration, bottled water and electrolytes available on the half marathon course, high quality refreshments provided by event partners, and an informal bag check area. Bathrooms are within a short walk of the start and finish; porta-johns and a parks building restroom are located near the finish and the east side of the course.

The half marathon provides live time tracking with predicted finish times and split photos. There is a virtual participation option allowing competitors a full week from the event start to log times and upload up to five photos; items for virtual participants begin shipping on the event start day. A mailed bib option is available for a fee with a registration lead time requirement.
