About This Race
The Faxon Law New Haven Road Race is a Labor Day tradition on the New Haven Green that serves as the USATF 20K National Championship, drawing elite and recreational runners alike. The flat and fast courses wind past Yale University, East Rock Park, and through the Westville neighborhood, offering multiple distance options including a 20K, half marathon, 5K, half marathon relay, and a kids fun run. The post-race festival on the Green features live music, an outdoor fitness expo, beer from East Rock Brewing for participants 21+, and the ACES Kids Fun Zone. Tech shirts are provided to the first 4,500 registrants, and nearly 20 musical acts line the course.
