NYCRUNS Go Nuts For Donuts 5K - Governors Island

The event is a USATF certified 5K that makes one full loop around Governors Island, offering views of New York Harbor and Lower Manhattan. The Start and Finish are located a short walk from the Festival Area. Entries include a race bib, ferry rides for the runner and guests, a tech shirt, and a post race donut plus other refueling options.

The Festival Area is adjacent to the ferry terminal and is the location for bib and shirt pickup, bag check, portable bathrooms, and post race refreshment stations. NYCRUNS uses pace based start corrals assigned by letter from AA to F; corral assignment appears on the bib and is based on the pace entered in the NYCRUNS Dashboard.

Bag check requires a single clear bag provided if needed and subject to inspection. Water and electrolyte fluids are available on course and at the finish. Race photos are delivered by email after the event and one photo is available for free download.

Bibs are available for pickup on race morning with a unique QR code. NYCRUNS members may have bibs mailed at no cost when registered at least 20 days before the event to a U.S. address; shirts are not mailed. Results are emailed and published online. Awards are offered to the top three overall and to top three in each listed age group for male, female, and non binary divisions.

Standard no refunds and no transfers policies apply. Strollers and dogs are not allowed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
