What Amenities Can I Expect on Race Day?

Bag Check:

Runners can check their gear at all NYCRUNS races. Bag check is located at the Festival Area. If you plan on checking your gear, you must use one single clear bag. If your bag isn’t clear, NYCRUNS will provide you with a clear bag (18″ x 18″) when you check your gear. You may not put another full bag/backpack/briefcase filled with gear inside the clear bag that NYCRUNS provides. All items must fit inside one clear bag. NYCRUNS reserves the right to search the contents in your bag at any time.

We are not responsible for unclaimed bags, though they may be brought to our warehouse. You can fill out our contact form to inquire about any lost items.

Hydration: 

Water and electrolyte fluids will be available on the course and post-finish. The number and location of hydration stations will vary depending on the course and distance. Check the course map for each race’s specific set up.

Post Race Refreshments:

Post-race food will be provided in the Festival or Post-Finish Area. Our usual spread consists of bagels (with a schmear, of course) and pretzels and/or fresh fruit – though for a few of our food-themed races (NYCRUNS Go Nuts for Donuts, NYCRUNS Ice Cream Social, etc.) a special treat (hint, it’s in the name) will be added to our usual spread.

Restrooms:

Portable restrooms will be available and cleaned throughout the event.

Swag: 

Every NYCRUNS race includes a race shirt. Check the individual race pages for more details.

Photos:

Free finish line photos will be available within a week of the race. You will receive an email from MarathonFoto several days after the race to claim your photos.
