FIVE YEARS. FIVE LAPS. FIVE KILOMETRES.

Some races come and go.

NYMA 5K has been bringing runners back for five years.

No complicated course. No endless distance. Just five brutal laps of one kilometre around the NYMA terrain. Fast enough to chase a PB. Short enough to go all in. Painful enough to remember.

On Thursday, September 3, we're celebrating edition five the only way we know how.

No 10K. No half marathon. No distractions.

Just one distance. One mission. KNALLEN.

The course consists of five 1-kilometre laps, bringing you back through the heart of the event every single kilometre. The music gets louder. The crowd gets closer. The pace gets harder to hold.

To keep the racing competitive, we'll split the field into two heats:

• 19+ minutes

• Sub 19 minutes

Whether you're chasing your first sub-19 or fighting for an all-out PB, you'll line up with runners aiming for exactly the same goal.

But NYMA 5K has never been just about running fast.

It's about racing shoulder to shoulder. Seeing your friends every kilometre. Emptying the tank and staying afterwards for the atmosphere that has made this race special since day one.

Expect music, good people and another unforgettable night at the NYMA terrain.

This year's edition is proudly supported by Souplesse and Saucony.
