**Scroll Down to Register**

March 30 & December 7, 2025
All Races START at 8AM, Rain or Shine


 Please select the SPRING and/or FALL Race that you wish to register for below.

History was made for Queens on November 17th, 2024. Hosting over 1,000 runners marked an unforgettable milestone—the first time in QDR history! We couldn’t have done this without you. We have shaped a running culture in Queens that’s truly extraordinary, and we’re forever grateful. Here are some stories from the Queens Chronicle, QNS and the Queens Gazette.

We come one year closer to the streets of Queens with our flagship races, the 2025 Queens Marathon, QDR Half Marathon and 10K. We believe the NYC Running Community is not only worthy of multiple Marathons, we believe the Marathon season should start in the Spring and end in the Fall in Queens! 

The Spring Edition of the Queens Marathon will be our official celebration of the 10th Annual Queens Marathon! 

Please stay tuned for our FULL Queens Distance Runners Race Calendar at this link. Here's to your 2025!


EXPO


We are tentatively confirming Saturday, March 29th and Saturday, December 6th as the dates to pick up your bib, shirt, and experience what Queens has to offer! We are thrilled to bring back and build on our Inaugural Expo experience this past November!
