Yo Mama's So Fast 5K & Half Marathon
This event stages a road race in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Queens, featuring both a short and a long distance on a USATF certified course. The half marathon is run as multiple loops of the same circuit; the 5K is a single loop. A free kiddie dash is listed as part of the event program.
Distances

- Half Marathon 4 loops
Race logistics note that the start line is located on the south side of the Queens Theater. Half marathon runners must run through the finish line mats on each loop to ensure accurate split times and synced split and finish-line photos. A cutoff time of 3:15 hours applies to half marathon participants.
Amenities include an informal bag check area, portable toilets near the finish line, access to park bathrooms near mile 2, hydration at the finish, and race refreshments provided by All Round Foods and Waterloo Sparkling Water. Finishers receive a medal and a commemorative event tee is available. Live online results, same-day finish-line photos, and live time tracking with split photos for the half marathon are provided. A virtual participation option allows entrants to log a time and upload up to five photos during the week following the event; race items begin shipping on the event start day.
