Planet NY Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K Races

On the week of the United Nation's convening join runners from all over the world.  In support of the United Nations Joint Sustainable Development Fund, this event is full of friendship, diversity, and purpose.  This is what Queens, the most diverse community in the United States is all about.  Join us on September 17th to run a half marathon, 10k, or 5k on an unforgettable tree lined course with vistas of the city, unisphere, and all that makes Flushing Meadow Corona Park the heart of this amazing community.  The course for Half Marathon athletes is a fast 3.27 mile loop that they complete 4 times.  10K athletes run most of the same course with a short cut off so that they complete 3.1 miles for each loop, thus completing 2 loops to finish.  5K athletes run this same course once.  Each loop is chip timed real time, with digital mapping, and live streaming.  It's a wonderful way to keep up with your racing in the most incredible city in the world.
