8 a.m. | At the Garden
Kicking off NYC Climate Week, this leisurely 3.1-mile course takes you past some of the Garden’s most gorgeous scenery, including the Maureen K. Chilton Azalea Garden and the Judy and Michael Steinhardt Maple Collection, plus historic landmarks like the Lillian and Amy Goldman Stone Mill, Mertz Building, and the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory. Your participation directly supports our work here and around the world to protect biodiversity and develop plant-based solutions to climate change.
After your run, join us on Daffodil Hill for festivities including meet-and-greets with NYBG experts to learn about their important work across a range of disciplines. And don’t forget to grab your NYBG 5K Fun Run T-shirt before you set off to enjoy the rest of your day at the Garden!
