THANK YOU TO OUR 2023 PARTICIPANTS!

9:30 AM – 11:30 AM (STAGGERED START)
YANKEE STADIUM, ONE EAST 161ST STREET, BRONX, NY
THE RUNYON 5K RETURNS TO YANKEE STADIUM THIS SUMMER!
Everything old is new again! The Runyon 5K returns to its weekend morning roots - and its original course - for what's sure to be a midsummer classic.
Join us on Saturday, July 29, for the 2023 Runyon 5K, a unique cancer research fundraising run/walk that uses Yankee Stadium as its course. Run or walk the concourses and ramps, climb stairs between levels, and take your own victory laps around the warning track that circles the field!
The Runyon 5K will take place rain or shine, barring any extreme weather conditions that would put the safety of our participants at risk. In the event of severe weather, modifications to the route may be made to ensure everyone's safety.
You can participate as an individual or get friends, family members and colleagues together to form a team. 100% of donations you raise will support innovative cancer research by today’s best young scientists, funded by the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation.
CHOOSE YOUR OWN START TIME
The entire Runyon 5K route is inside Yankee Stadium and is narrower than a traditional road race, so participants' start times must be staggered to avoid congestion and ensure everyone's safety. You can choose your own start time when you register, but please keep the following in mind:
• The first three heats are for runners only.
• All other heats (Heat 4 at 10 am through Heat 13 at 11:30 am) are available for runners and walkers to select on a first-come, first-served basis. To ensure everyone's safety, participants who are walking in Heat 4 or subsequent heats should position themselves in the back of the pack at the start line, while runners should head to the front. Walkers should stay to the right, allowing runners to pass on the left.
While adjustments can be made, team members should check with their team captain prior to registering so you can choose the same start time as the rest of your team.
Finish time results are available here.
