NYCRUNS Frozen Bonsai 5K

NYCRUNS Frozen Bonsai 5K

The NYCRUNS Frozen Bonsai 5K is held in Prospect Park, Brooklyn. The course covers just under a full loop of the park with a final stretch up Center Drive to the finish. All NYCRUNS courses are USATF certified.

The Festival Area is located in the Nethermead and can be reached via Center Drive or the walking paths off Well House Drive. The Festival Area handles bib and shirt distribution, bag check, and general race information. Start corrals use a pace-based system (AA through F) and are located on Well House Drive; corral assignments appear on the bib and are based on the pace saved in a runner’s NYCRUNS Dashboard profile.

Amenities include bag check using a single clear bag (provided if needed, 18 x 24 inches), portable bathrooms in the Festival Area and on course, water stations on course, and post-race refreshments including water, Gatorade, an apple, and a bagel with schmear. Every participant receives a race tech shirt on race day only; sizes are not guaranteed. Finishers receive a finisher medal. Race photos are provided, with one eligible image available as a free download and additional packages available for purchase through the race photo vendor.

Handcycle and Wheelchair divisions are accepted and can be selected in the race profile. Results are posted after the race. Awards are given to the top three overall male, female, and non-binary finishers by gun time and to the top three in each age group by net time. Bib mailing is available for NYCRUNS members at no charge or can be purchased; mailed bibs require registration at least 20 days before the event and a U.S. mailing address. Pricing is tiered for members and non-members and registration closes the day before the race or earlier if capacity is reached. Event policies include no refunds or transfers, restrictions on strollers and dogs, and course time limits. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
