Queens Distance Runners is proud to present the NYC Kids RISE Spring Marathon Tune-Up, a purpose-driven 30K, 20K, and 10K designed to prepare runners for spring marathon season while investing directly in the future of Queens’ youth, finishing on what was started at Queens Marathon Weekend.

While we will not be hosting a Marathon this spring, we have instead decided to organize more events, including the return of our Spring Marathon Tune-Up.

This event supports NYC Kids RISE’s first-ever boroughwide scholarship initiative, ensuring that every third grader in Queens with an NYC Scholarship Account is included in this historic moment for college and career access.

Through April 4, registration for this race functions as a direct contribution — donating = registering.

Every step you take helps strengthen college and career pathways for students across Queens, reinforcing the belief that opportunity should not be limited by zip code. By showing up to train, you’re showing up for the next generation of leaders in our borough. See you on April 4th!

REGISTRATION OPTIONS

You will receive a code to register after donating through NYC Kids Rise first.
