The Sitrin Riggie Run & Walk is an annual race held at SUNY Polytechnic Institute in Utica, starting from 100 Seymour Road.

The event supports Sitrin’s Military Program, providing care to post-9/11 veterans and service members managing conditions such as post-traumatic stress, suicidal thoughts, traumatic brain injuries, depression, and other combat-related issues. The Riggie Challenge is a unique aspect of the day: 5K runners can opt to eat a bowl of chicken riggies at the halfway mark before completing the race. Following the run and walk, Riggiefest offers chicken riggies from local restaurants, with complimentary entry for race participants. This event originated from Sitrin’s ongoing fundraising for its Military Program.

The main course winds through the park's wilderness trails, featuring gravel paths, grass sections, bridge crossings, and small hills. Mud is a possibility following wet weather. The 1.5-mile route mirrors the initial loop of the 5K, and the kids' race is held on the inner grass area near the pavilion, allowing parents to accompany younger children. The event also gathers non-perishable food donations for the Mohawk Valley Church Food Pantry. Pets are not permitted on race day.

Boos & Brews 5K is a Halloween-themed 5K in Utica, New York, held around Halloween with a fun mood rather than a serious race-day feel. It is part of Willow Running’s lineup in Central New York and the Southern Tier, and the name suggests the basic idea: a short scary-season run followed by beer, food, and a party. After the 5K, runners head to Pizza Boys for the post-race gathering, with food and drink waiting after the finish. The race includes usual perks for a themed local event, such as race swag and a finisher medal, and it supports NY Mills High School PTSO, so the day also contributes to a local school community cause.
