Only In Harlem 5K Run/Walk 2027
The Only In Harlem event is organized as a community 5K run and walk listed for 2027 on Randall's Island Field #10 in New York. The event offers live timing and results, an Only In Harlem branded race number, music, refreshments, and raffle activities supported by a sponsor. Public bathrooms are available within a short walk from the start and finish areas, and porto potties are placed at the race site. There is no formal bag check; an informal bag drop will be offered but the event cannot assume responsibility for lost or stolen items.
Proceeds are split between Harlem Run and the Never Stop Running Foundation. Harlem Run is described as a collective founded in November 2013 that brings runners from the Harlem community together. The Never Stop Running Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that supports athletic and charitable events and works with athletes at local, national, and international levels.
Event logistics include in-person bib pickup at the event location and a virtual bib option that ships to registrants. Registrants who sign up three weeks before the event may receive a personalized race number. The course is held on lands of the Wappinger and Munsee Lenape and the organizers note partnerships and acknowledgments related to Indigenous communities. Live online and same-day photo and video services are provided. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
