The Prospect Park Half Marathon

The Prospect Park Half Marathon takes place in Brooklyn, New York. The course covers a total distance of 13.1 miles within the historic landscape of Prospect Park. Participants complete a multi-loop route that begins and ends on Center Drive, located in the middle of the park.

The race course consists of one loop of the northern half of the park, followed by three counter-clockwise loops of the park's outer ring. Runners transition from Center Drive onto West Drive to complete the circuit. To assist with hydration, water stations are positioned along the course at intervals of approximately 1.5 miles. All finishers receive medals upon completing the event back at the finish line on Center Drive.
