NYRR - Midnight Run

Kick off the New Year at the Midnight Run! Join the fun and celebrate as 2015 comes to a close. They will have four DJs, face painting, strobe lights, photo opportunities, fun giveaways, and more starting at 10:00 p.m. With a countdown to midnight beginning at 11:59 p.m., the four-mile unscored run will kick off at the stroke of midnight, as will a spectacular 15-minute fireworks display to light up the night at the start of 2016.

The course is the four-mile Central Park "inner" loop:

Mile 1: Start on East Drive near East 68th Street and run north, ascending Cat Hill. Mile 2: Continue north and pass Engineers' Gate (East 90th Street). Turn left onto the 102nd Street Transverse. Mile 3: Turn left onto West Drive and run south through a series of three rolling hills as you pass the Reservoir on your left. Mile 4: Enjoy a downhill, then a flat section. Turn left onto the 72nd Street Transverse and finish just west of Bethesda Terrace.
