Run the Divas Long Island Half Marathon - RESULTS

The Divas Long Island half marathon and 5K is this weekend, and there's still time to register. The race, which starts at Eisenhower Park East Meadow, NY, is on Sunday, October 1st, and you can register for the race here.

[Update: See the 2017 Divas Long Island half marathon results. You'll also find the 5K results at this link.]

Find out all about the Divas Long Island event, which includes the half marathon as well as a 5K. Be sure to make note of the directions, parking instructions, info on checking your gear, and much more. See a map of the half marathon course, and the 5K course.

Note: The races aren't cheap; the prices have gone up as the race day approached, and through today are $100 for the half marathon and $60 for the 5K. If the event isn't filled up as of race day, registration at the expo is $125 for the half and $80 for the 5K. (Update: see details below.) Race-day registration and packet pick-up for online registrants is at the Health & Fitness Boutique (see info below).

[Update, 9/29:

  • Online registration is closed as of 9/28, but you may be able to register at the Health & Fitness Boutique, if event is not filled. 
  • Just noticed on the registration website that registration fee for both the half marathon and 5K includes: a pink tutu, finisher medal, women's fit tech shirt, Divas drawstring bag, boa & tiara along the course, "shirtless hunks" (along the course, I presume), and post-race "nourishment & entertainment."]

Good luck to all participants, and run like a diva! (whatever that may mean to you).
