The Experience
The Unforgettable Staten Island race series is exactly what the name implies. A badass borough that may have a chip on its shoulder. A tough as nails community that feels that in NYC, there could be a perception of the forgotten borough. This is just that, a race for those who go against the grain and run with the Trimara tribe howling for a chance to be epic, stake their claim and race like you mean it with other like minded folks. The Unforgettable Staten Island Half Marathon is a boardwalk race that will take place on the waterfront stretch of South Beach Staten Island NY. This will be a spectator friendly event as runners take their racing to a multi loop half marathon course.
