Join SHAPE Women's Half Marathon
The SHAPE Women’s Half-Marathon will celebrates its anniversary race at the end April and once again prove that Women Run the World™ !
The New York Road Runners’ More/Fitness/Shape Women’s Half Marathon — the NYRR partners with More Magazine, Fitness Magazine and Shape Magazine to organize the race — takes runners on a gorgeous looping run entirely within Central Park, for a race that quickly sells out every year.
More than 7,000 runners — the race is open to women only — crossed the finish line each year, along a course that starts on West Drive near the southern end of Central Park, just off Central Park West.
Course highlights
Course starts on West Drive near the southern end of Central Park, just off Central Park West.
From there, the course heads around the park in a counter-clockwise direction, unfolding along East Drive to head north past the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis reservoir, all the way up to Harlem Meer and the North Woods section of the park.
After that, runners head southwest through the park, along West Drive down through the Great Lawn and it surrounding softball fields, past the Lake and the Sheep Meadow, and crosses over 65th Street to bring runners back to where they started.
Then you run the entire loop a second time, before finishing on Terrace Drive next to the Bethesda Fountain.
