Brooklyn Marathon

The Brooklyn Marathon is an NYCRUNS race that debuted in 2011.[1] Originally held in the fall with laps around Prospect Park,[2] it returned in 2022 following the COVID-19 pandemic with a new course that goes from Williamsburg to Prospect Park and added a half marathon on the same day.[3][4] Plans for a new course first began in 2013.[5]
