Event overview

The NYCRUNS Go Nuts For Donuts 5K takes place on Governors Island in New York Harbor. Entry includes ferry passage for the runner and guests, a race entry, a tech shirt, and a post-race donut. The course is one full loop of the island and is USATF-certified. The Festival Area near the ferry terminal serves as bib and shirt pickup, bag check, and the location of the Start and Finish.

Logistics and rules

Start corrals are pace-based and assigned by letter (AA-F) on the bib. Bibs are available for pick up on race morning in the Festival Area using a unique QR code; NYCRUNS members who register 20 days or more before the event can have bibs mailed to U.S. addresses (shirts are not mailed). Bag check requires a single clear bag; a clear bag (18" x 24") will be provided if needed and contents may be searched. Portable bathrooms, on-course and finish hydration (water and electrolytes), and post-race fruit are provided. Race photos are distributed by a race photographer after the event. Awards are given to the top three male, female, and non-binary finishers overall (by gun time) and to the top three in each listed age group (by net/chip time). Handcycle and wheelchair athletes are not advised to register due to the number of turns on the course. Policies include no refunds and no transfers; members have race credit options.
