The Arc Grand Prix Run and Walk
The Arc Grand Prix Run and Walk is a charity footrace held at Watkins Glen International in Watkins Glen, New York, on October 31, 2026. The event benefits The Arc Chemung-Schuyler and has been presented by Watkins Glen International since 2014.
Course options include a timed track course and a shorter Pit Road option. The Track follows the full WGI racing surface, including the boot, and can be entered as one lap or two laps. The Pit Road Walk offers a one mile route with a view of Victory Lane and finishes alongside Track participants; this shorter course is not timed.
Participants receive a long sleeve performance crew t-shirt in adult sizes S to 3XL and youth sizes S to L. Shirt size requests cannot be guaranteed for registrations received after September 30. All youth participants receive a finisher ribbon.
Awards are given for the 3.4 mile and 6.8 mile Track courses. Medals will be awarded to first through third place male and female finishers in standard age brackets and to overall male and female winners. Award winners may collect their medals at the awards table immediately after finishing; there is no formal award ceremony.
Packet pickup is scheduled at Arnot Mall in the days before the event and on race day at Watkins Glen International. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
