ABOUT US:

From race directors to course monitors, all Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team races are staffed by its own volunteers since the Team’s inauguration in 1977 by its founder and fitness advocate, Sri Chinmoy.

Today, the SCMT organizes over 1,700 races a year in 27 countries across 4 continents, ranging from short kids fun-runs, to marathons to the world’s longest certified road race – the annual Self-Transcendence 3100 mile race (yes, 3,100 miles, it’s not a typo). We love running and putting on races – we hope you enjoy the friendly atmosphere we provide, free of commercial sponsors.

EVENT CANCELLATION POLICY

We live in uncertain times. If we are forced to cancel this event owing to circumstances beyond our control, including, but not limited to:

New or modified COVID-19 regulations/restrictions imposed by park officials or city or state governments;

Unsafe conditions in the park, such as excessive snow or ice on the roadways, or other severe weather related conditions;

the event will be converted to a virtual one. Registered participants will still receive race giveaways and finisher medals in the mail upon completion of the virtual race, and trophies will be mailed to winners as per the awards breakdown above.

Party With Purpose 5K is back! As one of the biggest races in Hoboken, this event supports local youth charities, including Boys and Girls Club of Hudson County, HOPES, Mile Square Theater and Community Lifestyle. After the kids of the Boys and Girls Club and other charities have their fun in the afternoon, the evening kicks off with 500+ runners on Pier A with the best waterfront views during the 5K. Immediately upon finishing the race, our after party begins! The live DJ and a beer/wine garden along the pier is a great way for volunteers and runners alike to end a successful night.

Runs & Leaps Extravaganza!

JULY 28, 2026

On the occasion of National Dance Institute's (NDI) Founder Jacques d'Amboise's birthday, and in celebration of the organization’s 50th Anniversary, come dance with us to show your support for the importance the arts plays in all our lives. Following the success of the 2025 event, in Jackie Robinson Park in 2025, we're thrilled to expand this Runs and Leaps Extravaganza, to Central Park’s Naumburg Bandshell – just a “run and leap” from the Delacorte Theatre, home to many past NDI performances.

Under the Artistic Direction of Kay Gayner and Chirstopher d'Amboise, NDI Teaching Artists will guide current dancers, alumni, supporters, and friends of NDI as they "run and leap" across this iconic New York City site. Participants close the event with a short performance of an excerpt from a well-loved piece of NDI's repertoire - all accompanied by NDI's live band under the Music Direction of Yakir Ben Hur.

Reunite with your fellow alumni, meet the new generation of NDI dancers, and launch us into the next 50 years.

No experience is required - you'll learn everything you need to know in a short rehearsal upon arrival!

Participation is limited - register yourself or a team today!
