Jan 15, 2024 - 'Run for Their Lives,' a group of Israeli expats and American Jews with 52 locations worldwide, has come to Central Park every weekend since Oct. 7, 2023 to jog or walk briskly on behalf of hostages still being held captive in the Gaza Strip.
On Sunday about 2,000 people showed up, even with the near-freezing temperatures, to mark the hostages’ 100th day in captivity. Many attendees carried posters with images of the hostages and chanted “Bring them home now.”

“Run for Their Lives” loops around the Bridle Path surrounding The Reservoir.
