Mineola, New York · Saturday, May 9, 2026
The East Texas Ultra is a running, trail running, and ultra event held on Saturday, May 9, 2026. It is located in Mineola, New York.
In 1993 the Nasau Police Running Club held a 5K run in memory of Nassau County Police Officer Gary R. Farley who tragically died in the line of duty. PO Farley was the first officer to lose his life in the line of duty since the inception of the Nassau Police Running Club in 1980.
Since 1993, the Nassau County Police has tragically lost many additional members who were serving the people they were sworn to protect.
The Nassau Police Running Club has vowed to ensure that these officers lives would not be lost in vain and the club is committed to making sure all members and their families know that we will never forget the sacrifice their loved ones have endured.
The Nassau County Police Officer Memorial Run is held annually and proceeds from the Nassau Police Officer Memorial Run will be used to present scholarships in the names of our fallen officers. These scholarships will be presented to graduating high school seniors attending secondary education and who are involved in their schools running clubs.
The 2nd Annual Give Life NY 5K Run/Walk is to raise awareness for organ donation. The Co-directors of the event, Mindy Davidson and Bob Goldfarb are runners and non-directed living donors, and the race committee is made up of organ donors and organ recipients.
This event is open to everyone. We welcome your participation. You do not need to be a donor or a recipient to participate.

Team WEPA was born in the summer of 2016 in New York City with a single mission: reach people who thought running wasn't for them. Founded on the belief that every milestone is earned through effort and grit, the crew now runs 35 strong. What started as helping someone run their first mile has become a tight-knit family rooted in the Work. Excel. Persevere. Achieve. philosophy. Every Thursday night, Team WEPA gathers at the Corona Diner in Queens to run together through the city streets. They hold each other accountable, celebrate every step forward, and make sure no one gets left behind.
Boogie Down Bronx Runners was born from a simple observation. In May 2017, Lenny and Jean Paul noticed a gap in their borough no one else was filling, so they decided to change it themselves. The Bronx is the unhealthiest county in New York State, but these two runners believed something different was possible. What started as a solo runner at their first meetup has grown into nearly 40 strong on weekly runs, a non-judgmental community of everyday Bronx residents proving that running can transform lives, one BX mile at a time. They gather Sunday mornings at Edgar Allan Poe Park and Tuesday evenings at Pelham Cornerstone Community Center, offering two chances every week to be part of something real.
