New York City Sunrise Wish Run | Free Community Run
About this Event
New York City and the Five Boroughs — come help us send off a nationwide mission.
Day 15 of 50. State 15 of 50. The journey rolls on in New York City.
Join Brady McDonald, his family, and crew as they continue the Zero to 100 Wishes journey—running 50K in all 50 states over 50 consecutive days to raise $1 million benefiting Make-A-Wish.
Bring your run club, bring your family and flags, bring a friend — run the 5K, walk with us, or just come cheer along the route. You don't have to be a runner to be part of this moment, and it's all filmed for the 50-part YouTube series.
BONUS: NYC just declared August 8 Summer Streets Day, so we'll be moving through car-free city streets. Plus some of the city's best sights along the route.
Stick around for an after-party at 10am on the Upper East Side with a full street closure, food, ice baths, DJs, and more.
