THE RUNYON 5K RETURNS TO YANKEE STADIUM THIS SUMMER!
Everything old is new again! The Runyon 5K returns to its weekend morning roots 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!
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.
EARLY BIRD RATE EXTENDED! Our early bird entry fee of $40 is now available through Memorial Day! The entry fee will increase to $45 from May 30 through July 14, and to $60 from July 15 through July 28.
A reduced entry fee of $25 is available for children ages 5–12. Please note the minimum age to participate in the Runyon 5K is 5 years old.
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.
The last heat is currently scheduled for 11:30 am. Additional heats will be added if necessary. 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.
Can’t make it to the Bronx on July 29? Register as a Virtual Participant!
