NYRR Ted Corbitt 15K : Central Park, December 5, 2026
The NYRR Ted Corbitt 15K is the 18th annual running held in Central Park on December 5, 2026. The event honors Ted Corbitt, an influential figure in American long distance running who served as the first president of New York Road Runners, was the first African American to compete in the Olympic marathon, ran more than 170,000 miles in his lifetime, and helped set standards for course measurement and age group competition.
The race distance is 15K and the event is scored for club points. Finishers receive a commemorative medal and all participants receive a New Balance long sleeve tri blend T shirt. The event is open to runners age 16 and up and is listed as a 9+1 program qualifier for eligible registration options.
Prize money is offered in the NYRR Member Division to runners who meet membership and time requirements. Prize amounts are specified for top finishers and additional age 40 plus awards are listed. Time bonuses apply for course record performances and for top finishers who meet published net time standards.
Race services include on site awards for the top three overall in men, women, and nonbinary divisions, live unofficial tracking via the NYRR app during the event, and official results posted afterward on the NYRR results site. Bag check, bib pickup location at the NYRR RUNCENTER, and other operational details are provided closer to the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
