The Manhattanite
The Manhattanite is a CityTri Runs race on December 5, 2026 at Riverside Park, 84th Street & Riverside Drive in Manhattan. The event offers two timed road race distances on the Riverside Park waterfront.
Distances
- 10K Two loops of 3.1 miles each.
- 5K One loop of 3.1 miles.
The course runs out and back along the Hudson on park paths. The route is not flat; short, steep rises occur rather than one long climb. The 10K uses a loop format with U turn signage directing longer race participants back for a second lap; 5K runners complete one lap and continue through the finish arch.
Race day services include bib pickup on race day only with a check in code required, bag check, portable toilets at the start, and pre race announcements. Water stations are provided twice per loop and offer water, Gatorade, and gels. Chip timing records results and per lap splits, and live results post when runners cross the line. Free personalized photos and race video are posted to participant pages.
Every finisher receives a medal, a technical race shirt, a personalized race video, photos, and a race certificate. Awards include plaques for the top three overall men and women in each distance and medals for the top three in each age group. Participants must wear the bib on their front torso, start in assigned waves, be at least six years old, and observe the event rules. Refund protection and limited transfer options are available under the event policy. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
