Run for Queens.
Run for the Future.
Queens is the Future.
This December, we’re not just lacing up for medals — we’re showing up for nearly 20,000 third graders across Queens.
For the first time ever, proceeds from the Queens Get The Money 5K/10K on Friday, December 6 and the Queens Marathon + QDR Half Marathon on Sunday, December 7 will directly benefit the NYC Scholarship Accounts of third graders borough-wide — from the Rockaways to Astoria, Jackson Heights to Jamaica. Every registration brings us one stride closer to building a stronger, more equitable future for our kids through NYC KIDS RISE.
We’ve worked for years to build something real in Queens — and this is our moment. A full weekend of movement, momentum, and meaning. First, an exciting morning race at Flushing Meadows Park. Then, a dynamic Queens Marathon Expo to celebrate the organizations, stories, and spirit that define our borough. And on Sunday, we go big with the main event: the Queens Marathon and QDR Half, with our eyes set on a course that will day will take us through the streets and neighborhoods of Queens.
This is more than a race. It’s a borough-wide challenge, a celebration of community, and an opportunity to create lasting impact.
Register now. Run both days. And be part of something historic.
