Vaisakhi 5K : Run for Fauja Singh
The Vaisakhi 5K is an annual community race held at Victory Field in Woodhaven, NY. The event is presented as the 11th annual edition and this year honors Fauja Singh. The course starts and finishes at the same point; a marked midpoint indicates a U-turn and returning participants veer right to complete one counter-clockwise lap to the finish line. The race distance is 5K.
Event services include live online, text, and email results, free finish line photos, complimentary T shirt, on-course refreshments before and after the run, and a finisher medal for all participants. Participants who register at least three weeks in advance receive a personalized bib. Bib pickup requires a bib number; last-minute registrants are sent a bib number by text shortly after registration. Personalized bibs and same-day logistics are handled by on-site event staff.
Awards are given to the top three men and women overall and to the top man and woman in each listed age group: 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, and 80 plus. An interactive course map and race results from prior years are available for reference. Parking guidance is provided for attendees traveling by car.
