Brief Description

In December 2006 Natural Home magazine named Park Slope one of America's 10 best neighborhoods based on its parks, green spaces and neighborhood gathering spaces. Taking its name from its location on the western slope of neighboring Prospect Park it's main avenues are its primary commercial streets, while its east-west side streets are populated by many historic brownstones.

Join us on a 5 mile run to experience a Manhattan lifestyle in a neighborhood setting.

Run Details
