The JURCs 2026 10K/10M 5-Borough Series

Forget the frantic pace of the race clock and the crowded corrals - The JURCs 2026 10K/10M 5-Borough Series is bringing a different kind of energy to the pavement. From April through September, we’re hosting 5 laid-back, community-first tours of NYC that’s more about the miles and the memories than the podium. Whether you’re looking to cruise through a scenic 10K or stretch your legs with a steady 10-Miler, or even a easy 5K walk/run, these runs are designed to let you soak in the local flavor of every borough at your own speed. No timing chips, no pressure, just great routes, better company, and a shared journey toward those running goals.

We are keeping the momentum going in Queens, the World's Borough, for the second of our runs. Please meet us outside of the restrooms in Queensbridge Park by 7:30 AM; wheels up (and feet moving!) at 8:00 AM sharp.  
Parking: You will need to park near Queensbridge Park.  Click on the links below for directions to the park.

Note: This will not be a race, but instead a collaborative long run. To keep things low-key and focused on the miles, we will NOT be providing bibs or timing the run. We encourage everyone to track their own miles on Strava or Garmin.
