BREATHE BROOKLYN: 5K Community Run/Walk
Advertisement
A Brooklyn 5K to move, connect & give back. Run, jog or walk with us in support of the fight against lung cancer and lung disease.
About this Event
Breathe Brooklyn 5K Community Run
Run. Connect. Remember.
Join us on Saturday, September 5, 2026 for the first annual Breathe Brooklyn 5K, a community run through Prospect Park bringing people together for health, connection, and a cause that hits close to home.
Breathe Brooklyn was created by two Brooklyn friends who both lost their fathers to serious lung disease. What started as something personal became a bigger idea: bring people together, get outside, move our bodies, meet good people, and support the fight against lung cancer and lung disease.
This is not a competitive race. Whether you run, jog, or walk, you’re welcome. Come at your own pace and be part of something meaningful.
