Join over 28,000 runners in America's fastest growing race - the NYCRUNS Brooklyn Experience Half Marathon on Sunday, April 25, 2027.
Take an epic tour of NYC's coolest borough, from the smooth start in the hip North Brooklyn neighborhoods of Williamsburg and Greenpoint, to the festive finish in Prospect Park. Whether it's the winding route around the East River waterfront under the historic Williamsburg, Manhattan, and Brooklyn Bridges with eye popping views of the Manhattan skyline, or the historic concourses of Fulton Street and Flatbush Avenue, you’ll forever remember NYC's most authentic Brooklyn running experience.
Launched in 2011 as the NYCRUNS Brooklyn Marathon in Prospect Park with a few hundred finishers, the half marathon was added to the event in 2018. In 2022, both distances stretched across the borough with a new start in North Brooklyn, before becoming a standalone half marathon in 2023. In 2026, an event record 28,052 runners finished the race, making it the third largest half marathon and the fastest growing race in the nation.
