JFK Runway 5K Run/Walk

The JFK Runway 5K Run/Walk is a unique event scheduled for May 17, 2025, at JFK International Airport. Participants have the rare opportunity to run on an active runway, which is temporarily closed to aircraft for the race. This event, organized by the JFK Rotary Club, has evolved from a 10K to a 5K format to enhance safety and logistics.

The race features various awards, including trophies for overall winners and medals for top finishers in different age groups. Post-race refreshments will be provided, making it a memorable experience for all participants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
