Queen City Mile
The Queen City Mile is a running event on 08/15/2026 in Buffalo, NY, centered on a one mile course through the Old First Ward. The event includes a separate kids race and heats split by gender. It is presented in association with a local running club and is part of the USATF Niagara runner of the year series and the Buffalo runner of the year series.
There are two entry options listed: the 1 mile Queen City Mile and a Triple Crown Series entry. Registration details from the organizer are:
