About this race
This Memorial Day weekend, run through the historic grounds of Fort Hamilton, one of the oldest operating military bases in the United States. You'll be alongside hundreds of visitors from the armed forces for Fleet Week NYC. The course is mostly flat and fast, offering views of the NYC Skyline and Verrazano Bridge as you race up to and under the longest suspension bridge in the Americas. It's a well-marked route, easy to manage if you're aiming for a fast time. Afterward, celebrate with a photo session, awards ceremony, and Brooklyn's best bagels, creating a memory that truly honors Memorial Day.
