Totten Trot 5K Run/Walk 2027
The Totten Trot is a fundraising 5K run and walk held at Fort Totten Park in Bayside, New York. The event benefits the Bayside Historical Society and supports its programs, archival collections, educational mission, and the upkeep of the landmarked Officers’ Club, also called "The Castle." Registration is listed as not yet open.
The course follows a waterfront route on Little Neck Bay around a preserved Civil War fortress and passes through the Historic District with buildings dating to the late 1800s. The route includes a loop onto Little Bay Path toward the Throgs Neck Bridge and returns to the Officers’ Club. The 5K is USATF certified (NY16098JG).
Amenities and event features include reception and awards at the historic Officers’ Club, commemorative silver-anniversary T-shirts for those registered three weeks before race day, raffle prizes from local merchants, and a special appearance by the 501st Legion’s Empire City Garrison costuming group for photo opportunities.
Bib pickup is managed by event staff on race day; runners who register three weeks in advance can request personalized bibs. Last-minute registrants within 24 hours may receive a bib number by text. Results and finish-line photos are provided online the same day, with live result options via email or text.
