About
Veterans Day Freedom Run 5K/10K/13.1 NYC Central takes place in New York, New York, on November 14, 2026, with the 13.1-mile half marathon, the 10K, the 5K and a 1-mile family fun run all starting at 7:30 a.m. The format is untimed and inclusive, with in-person and virtual entry and capped wave starts that keep the size of the field in check for runners of all abilities. A bib, a finisher medal, a shirt and a certificate of participation are provided.
An untimed half is a chance to practice pacing by feel, which is a skill worth having before a goal race. Run the first few miles easier than instinct suggests and see how the last three feel. Before entering, work your long run up toward 10 miles. If that is out of reach for now, the 5K is a realistic first target and the mile suits family members.
