NYRR Fred Lebow Half
The NYRR Fred Lebow Half is a winter half marathon held in Central Park, Manhattan on January 24, 2027. The course consists of two loops of Central Park’s Ted Corbitt Loops and is a scored event with time-qualifier status.
The event offers on-course support from an NYRR pace team and a Maurten Gel Depot for fuel. Pace team members wear blue-and-white singlets and orange-and-blue back flags showing target finish times; pacers meet their target finish time 96.5% of the time. All finishers receive a medal and a warm winter pom beanie. The race is open to participants aged 16 and up and serves as a 9+1 credit qualifier for eligible passholders.
Prize money is equal across men, women, and nonbinary categories for top finishers, with listed payouts for the top five positions and separate payouts for the NYRR Member Division 40+ top three. Prize money and time bonuses require a paid NYRR membership held for at least three months prior to race day and completion of the course within specified time standards.
Race number pickup is handled at the NYRR RUNCENTER featuring the New Balance Run Hub on West 57th Street. Information on reasonable accommodations, guide and support runner requests, and NYRR Race Free assistance is provided for eligible participants.
