The Brooklyn Greenway Initiative’s annual half marathon and 5K will return this weekend.
Registration is still open for the Brooklyn Greenway Half Marathon & 5K, which takes place on Sunday, October 6th, with the 5k starting at 8:30 a.m. and the half marathon at 9:35 a.m.
The route traces the Brooklyn waterfront from Red Hook to Greenpoint, and proceeds help support the non-profit organization which advocates for and maintains 26-miles of protected pedestrian and cyclist lanes.
Approximately six miles of the Brooklyn greenway is open for public use, with four additional segments in the design phase, according to the BGI website.
