RACE DAY: September 26, 2026
REGISTER HERE
We’re excited for another year of great racing and unforgettable moments with all of you!
Last year spoiled us with warm, sunny weather and fantastic turnout —proof that this community just keeps getting better. With more skaters joining the fun, we’re working hard to make the 2026 race our best one ever.
NEW: Consolidating Divisions & New 10K Distance
In previous years, we divided races into Recreational and Open/Advanced divisions. However, we’ve observed that the ability levels often overlap and that this segmentation sometimes dilutes competition and community. Therefore:
- All skaters in the half and full marathon distances (21K and 42K) will now compete in a single division (no “Recreational” vs. “Advanced” split).
- This adjustment is intended to elevate competition, simplify registration, and strengthen camaraderie among participants.
- A new 10K (2 laps) option!
FRIDAY BIB PICKUP
Skaters absolutely love this because it gives them a chance to sleep in a little more on race day, ample time to pick up purchases and bibs, browse sponsor tables, catch up with friends, and enjoy some skating at the Prospect Park roller rink.

Lincoln Road Entrance Closure
The usual Lincoln Road entrance is closed for construction. Please use a secondary entrance roughly a 3-minute walk south or a 5-minute walk north on Flatbush Avenue.
The illustration below will help you find your way into the park.
