Harlem One-Miler

For nearly three decades, Harlem United has changed lives by helping marginalized communities improve their health and well-being through compassionate, client-centered care. From our roots, planted in the basement of a church in Harlem at the height of the AIDS crisis, we’ve grown into a full-fledged community-based healthcare and housing provider. Across the decades, our founding ethic has remained the same: Harlem United is a family, and no matter what we’re here to help.www.harlemunited.orgFounded in November 2013, Harlem Run is a collective of runners passionate about running and community. Strong, positive, and diverse, we all call Harlem home. We welcome runners of all sizes, ages and abilities as we run the streets of our iconic neighborhood and get fit together.  We start on time and end together with a stretch. Membership is free; come thru!www.harlemrun.org

Harlem United and Harlem Run

Calling all levels of runners and walkers for the 2nd Annual Harlem One-Miler!  This event brings the community together for a morning race/jog/walk/skip/shuffle around the park.  No experience is required.
There will be five heats of one mile each, split by age and gender, with the final heat being a fun run the whole family can do together. Kids who are only running in the family heat are discounted so that the whole family can afford to run together. 
Your start time will be confirmed when you pick up your race bib on the day or two before race day...or that morning if you are a last minute sort of person. There will be limited race entries at the race start.
Run with a crew?
This year, we have a SPECIAL friendly, competition going for the run club/crew with the most participants. Prizes include $200, a trophy, bragging rights, and some more goodies; sign up with your club/crew today!
What about kids?
Teenagers can run in the timed race and qualify for a prize! To do so, register as a "Adult or Timed Teen Runner." If you're a teen who only wants to run in the family run, go ahead and register as a child. Kids under 6 can participate in the family race for free. 
To Race As A Family
There is no one definition of family, so if you want to do this with one or more people, please do. This heat will not be timed, but you will still need a race number. And if you want to do the timed run and then join your family for the walk, you can use the same bib and you don't need to pay again.  Just email Rachel Cutler at rcutler@harlemunited.org to reserve your spot.
Sponsor a runner!
This year, we are partnering with YOU to help make the Harlem One-Miler even more accessible. By sponsoring a runner (or two!), you'll enable us to invite kids from local schools and homeless, low-income, or at-risk Harlem United clients to participate. Spread the joy of fitness and community with us.
