COURSE

Course likely and to be confirmed shortly!

3.1 miles, electronically timed, diverse and accurately measured course takes you on a tour of North Brooklyn’s hippest and old school streets before returning to the finish for a post-race refuel and awards. 

A RACE FOR EVERYONE
Participating runners' skill levels range from professional athletes to the fair weather and capricious exercisers. So you can run to beat the clock or slow stride it to the finish line. The Dime McCarren 5K has a speed for all abilities. It's a family fun run, and many families run in their own pack. And because the proceeds go to fund local education services, it's a win-win for everyone!

TIME LIMIT
The official time limit for runners is 1 hour for the 5K. Walkers will not be timed.

PLEASE NOTE: ROUTE HAS BEEN UPDATED DUE TO ROAD CLOSURE AT N. 11TH ST.
