Riverdale Y 5K & Fun Run
The Riverdale Y 5K & Fun Run is an annual community event held in the Bronx, New York. The gathering takes place at the Riverdale Y facility on Arlington Avenue and serves as a celebration of health and local engagement. Participants can choose between two main distances:
- 5K timed run
- 1K Fun Run/Walk
The 5K is a timed event designed for runners, while the 1K Fun Run/Walk is open to both runners and walkers. The event functions as a fundraiser to support various social impact programs and services provided by the Riverdale Y to the Bronx community.
Proceeds from the registration fees and donations contribute to several community initiatives. These programs include a food pantry that provides meals for older adults, enrichment and socialization services for seniors, and teen service projects. Additionally, the funds support intergenerational programming, community engagement, and various learning and volunteering opportunities throughout the region. Registration is open to the public, with price increases scheduled leading up to the event date. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
