The Brooklyn Marathon was a marathon run in Brooklyn, New York City from 2011 to 2022. It was produced by NYCRUNS in the fall.[1] The 2011 debut was centered around Prospect Park.[2] The race generated enough support that plans for new courses began in 2013.[3]
The race returned in 2022 following the COVID-19 pandemic with a new course that went from Williamsburg to Prospect Park. A half marathon was also run on the same day.[4][5] During the race in April 2022, they were expected to have 20,000 participants.[6] The 2022 race had $100,000 total in prize money and the winners of each category were: From New York City, the winner of the non-binary field was Jake Caswell; From Ethiopia, the winner of the women's field was Hirut Guangul. From New York City, the winner of the men's field was Aaron Mora.[7] The marathon also had the largest nonbinary group[8] with a total of 82 finishers which also includes the half-marathon.[9] NYCRUNS partnered with Adidas on a multi-year contract. Adidas agreed to make attire for all athletes and staff members participating in the event.[10]
In 2023, the race was limited to the half marathon distance and had 11,000 finishers.[11]
The future name of the race is unknown following a 2024 lawsuit by NYRR who operate an older Brooklyn Half Marathon.[12]
