The New Yorker Half, 10K, and 5K Shake Out

The New Yorker Half, 10K, and 5K Shake Out is held at Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, New York, on November 7, 2026. The half marathon (13.1 miles) starts at 9:30 a.m., the 10K at 9:35 a.m. and the 5K at 9:40 a.m., on looped courses that keep spectators close to the action throughout.

Entry covers water stations, energy gels, a technical shirt and a finisher medal, with awards for the overall leaders and for each age group, and supporters can track you live while you race. Loop courses make pacing simple: you learn the circuit on the first lap and know exactly what is left. The mid-morning start is friendly if you are traveling in, and the half rewards a 12-week build with one long run a week.
