2022 Virtual RBC Brooklyn Half Guide

The borough of Brooklyn is one that is steeped in tradition. A place where you can still get that perfect New York slice for $2.50 before planning a run anywhere across the nearly 30 miles of the Borough of Kings shoreline.

Share in that tradition and finish on your own Coney Island Boardwalk in the Virtual RBC Brooklyn Half Powered by Strava. Run the race anywhere and anytime between May 14 and May 22.
