5 & 10 km du Printemps de Riverside Park

5 & 10 km du Printemps de Riverside Park is a spring event in New York, New York, on May 2, 2027, offering two distances: a 10K and a 5K (3.1 miles). Both run through Riverside Park, so you cover the ground in the middle of the city while staying in green space, with the surrounding Manhattan neighborhoods in view. The two formats keep the event open to runners of every level, from first-timers to those chasing a time.

Choosing between them is mostly a question of your current weekly mileage: the 5K works on as little as 10 to 12 miles a week, while the 10K is more satisfying if you are already running four times a week and can handle a 6-mile long run. A park course means turns and shared paths, so run by effort rather than staring at your watch, and expect your split for each mile to vary a little. No start times have been announced for either distance.
