Robbie's Run 5K: Merrick, NY
Robbie's Run 5K is an annual community fundraising event held in Merrick, New York on May 30, 2026. It was established after a child died of sudden cardiac arrest on a little league field in 2005 and is presented as a day to remember that child while supporting lifesaving work.
The event takes place on the streets of Merrick and is described as a flat, fast course for participants who run or walk. It serves as a major fundraiser for a foundation that raises money to donate automated external defibrillators to places where children play and to provide AED and CPR training to interested members of the community.
