Legacy Run In The Park 5K Run/Walk 2026

On October 3, 2026, the Long Island Innovation Park at Hauppauge will host the third annual Legacy Run in the Park, a 5K walk/run that celebrates entrepreneurship and community growth. The event kicks off at 8:30 AM rain or shine, offering participants an opportunity to support local businesses while enjoying scenic routes through this vibrant business park.
The run is presented by the GSE Shybunko Memorial Fund, established in honor of Daniel J. Shybunko, founder of GSE Dynamics and a passionate advocate for small businesses. The fund aims to provide resources that help entrepreneurs start and grow their ventures, offering scholarships, workshops, and educational programs designed to empower future business leaders.
Participants will gather at the Parker Hannifin parking lot on Marcus Blvd., just across from where Corporate Drive intersects with the park entrance. This convenient location ensures easy access for runners of all levels as they prepare to embark on a 5K journey through Long Island Innovation Park, featuring flat terrain and picturesque landscapes that highlight the area's thriving business community.
The event not only promotes physical health but also supports local economic development by raising funds for initiatives aimed at nurturing small businesses. Join us in celebrating Dan Shybunko’s legacy and contributing to the future success of aspiring entrepreneurs.
For parking instructions, please enter the Parker Hannifin lot through Marcus Blvd., as Corporate Drive will be closed to vehicles on race day.
