CrimsonRise Waterfront 5K and 1M Run/Roll/Walk 2026

CrimsonRise Waterfront 5K and Mile Run, Walk, Roll – November 14, 2026
Join us on Staten Island for an inclusive and inspiring day of running, walking, and rolling at the CrimsonRise Waterfront event. This year's edition takes place along scenic Cornelia Avenue with breathtaking views of the waterfront.
The morning kicks off with a wheelchair-friendly 5K run starting promptly at 9:00 AM, followed by a one-mile fun run for all ages beginning at 10:00 AM. Participants can also join a leisurely mile walk that starts at 11:00 AM. The event is designed to be accessible and welcoming to individuals of all abilities, including those with sensory differences or movement challenges.
Registration begins half an hour before each start time, allowing ample opportunity for participants to familiarize themselves with the course layout and safety guidelines. Achilles International partners with CrimsonRise to ensure that everyone can participate safely and enjoyably, regardless of their physical capabilities.
The event celebrates diversity by offering awards in both the 5K run and one-mile fun run categories. The top three male and female finishers in the 5-Kilometer race will receive prize money: $250 for first place, $150 for second, and $100 for third. Additionally, all children participating in either of these races are awarded a medal to commemorate their achievement.
CrimsonRise Waterfront is more than just an athletic event; it's a community gathering that emphasizes the importance of inclusion and support for neurodiverse individuals. By presuming competence and providing necessary accommodations such as communication access and sensory regulation, the organizers aim to create meaningful opportunities for learning and personal growth within this unique setting.
Participants are encouraged to join in the spirit of camaraderie and celebration, making it a memorable day for runners, walkers, and rollers alike. Whether you're an avid athlete or someone looking to enjoy a leisurely stroll with family and friends, there's something at CrimsonRise Waterfront that everyone can appreciate.
