What: A 5-mile race
When: Thursday, September 3 at 6:45pm
Where: Bakline Flagship at 424a 3rd Ave, Brooklyn - see the course map below
Why: To support Hydration Guy's first venture into producing a race with Pace Yourself Productions while also supporting Fast Feet NYC!
This out-and-back course (see below) will take you from Bakline in Gowanus, through Cobble Hill and into Red Hook where you'll turn around on Valentino Pier (and have a great photo op). You'll run over the Gowanus Canal, up Smith Street, past some beautiful Cobble Hill brownstones, over the BQE pedestrian bridge, and through industrial Red Hook before the waterfront payoff.
The course will be marked and marshaled with volunteers, so no need to know the route or find your own way! Hydration will also be available twice while you're out there.
Streets are not closed, so runners should stick to the sidewalks (while respecting other sidewalk users) and be mindful at intersections - safety first always.
At the finish, expect plenty of hydration options. Water & electrolytes, samples of Liquid IV PICKLE flavor (and others), coconut water, Martinelli's apple juice, sparkling water, and beer (include N/A). We'll also have snacks, SWAG, and giveaways.
$5 from every entry will be donated to Fast Feet NYC.
