Here, you can find more about the event, the meeting location, and what to expect! What to Expect Arrive by 6:45 PM and show the QR code that you received from signing up to a volunteer! They will give you a tag to pin to your clothes! The run will start at 7PM. How to get there The start of the 5K is at Pier 6 in Brooklyn Bridge Park! It is about a 20 minute walk from the nearest subway, so please look up directions on how to get there, in advance! The B63 Bus will drop you off right near our starting line. What to wear Dress in comfortable shoes and clothes that you can run in! This event is "Rain or Shine" but will be cancelled if there is a danger of thunderstorms or other hazardous weather. FAQs What if I am a slow runner? That is OK! Walking is also OK, although we ask that you return to the start line within 45 minutes. If you're walking slowly, you can walk a shorter version of the course.
