NYRR Staten Island Half

The NYRR Staten Island Half is a standout race in New York City's fall calendar, held just four weeks before the TCS New York City Marathon. Serving as a key tune-up race, it offers a competitive and scenic 13.1-mile course through Staten Island, featuring expansive views of New York Harbor and the iconic Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. The course is fast and flat for the first eight miles, with rolling hills in the final stretch and an uphill finish—perfect for testing race-day fitness. As the final event in the NYRR Five-Borough Series, the Staten Island Half carries a strong sense of borough pride, celebrating the culture of NYC running.
