Our Programs

Rising New York Road Runners inspires kids of all abilities, ages 2–18, to be active for life through fun, free, year-round running experiences. We introduce youth to the sport of running with engaging opportunities that support their physical and academic growth. Programs take place across New York City and nationwide through schools, after-school programs, and community centers; continually expanding access to the benefits of running for the next generation.
