Dirt City: Sunrise Trails

Join us for a special edition of Dirt City as part of our New York City Marathon Pop-up week. Learn the trails of Prospect Park with a guided five-mile loop at sunrise. Please meet at the Grand Army Plaza entrance to the park at 7:00am. The trail is mostly hard-packed dirt with occasional rocks, roots and steep pitches. Trail shoes are not required. The pace will be approximately 10 min / mile (9 min / mile road equivalent). No bag check.

This series is a part of the ongoing project titled Dirt City: Developing Infrastructure for Routes and Trails in New York City. This is a project to promote the use and development of soft-surface trails across New York City for running and recreation. Beginning with sharing education about existing trails, the long-term goal of the project is to improve maintenance of and increase investment in existing and new trails in New York City.
