This annual road-running series, sponsored by Northwell Health, offers three USATF-certified courses: a half marathon, a 10K, and a 5K Family Fun Run. The routes guide runners through Bay Shore’s historic downtown before proceeding along residential streets near Brightwaters Lakes, Cascades, and Canals.

The program accommodates half-marathoners, 10K runners, families, and newer runners.

The Running for Water for Africa 5K begins and ends at Walnut Beach Pavilion, featuring a 3.1-mile run/walk.

The event commemorates Catherine Violet Hubbard, a 6-year-old animal lover who perished in the Sandy Hook School tragedy, maintaining that focus throughout the race day. The course is a simple 5K, offering timing for runners focused on results and a walk-friendly environment for all others. A Kids For Kindness Dash provides a separate event for children aged 3 to 9. Rescued animal ambassadors initiate the race and greet finishers at Victory Village, with adoptable pets also present. Registration includes a breakfast buffet, race shirt, finisher medal, drawstring bag, and sponsor gifts. The RaceJoy app allows friends and family who are not present to track, join, or complete the race from a distance.

The Suffolk County Marathon is an annual Long Island race weekend featuring a full marathon, half marathon, 10K, 5K, 1K Kids Fun Run, and a Virtual Mile Mission.

The 5K remains entirely within the park. Combo entries are available, including marathon-and-5K, half-and-5K, and 10K-and-5K, for participants seeking multiple events. The half marathon and marathon routes cross the Robert Moses Causeway, incorporating a distinct Long Island landmark rather than a simple road loop. The event accommodates a broad spectrum of runners and walkers; the 5K is open to ages 14 to 99, and a children's race is provided for younger participants. The Virtual Mile Mission allows participants to complete miles through various activities like walking, jogging, biking, swimming, or using a treadmill. This race series supports local veterans programs, with proceeds benefiting veterans on Long Island. The marathon has contributed over $1 million to local veterans' services.

The course follows local roads surrounding Germonds Park, with traffic control provided by the Clarkstown Police Department. Funds raised benefit The Happy Jack Fund, which provides yearly scholarships to high school students who have lost a sibling and offers support to families experiencing the loss of a child. All participants, kids and adults, receive medals. The first 200 main-event registrants will get race shirts. Teams are encouraged, and trophies will be awarded to the five largest teams based on registration.

Funds raised support local headache centers and training programs, including those at Montefiore, Mt. Sinai, and a headache fellowship program at Weill Cornell.

The 5K has water stations at miles 1 and 2, and results are posted with both chip time and gun time, with awards decided by gun time.
