Location & Information
About
Join us on December 28th for these inaugural holiday season races, the Queens NYC Chiller Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K. The runner's designed course, named The Rocket, uses long tree lined promenades with vistas of the city, massive Unisphere and Rocket Thrower installations, 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. Join us!
