Experience the bright lights of New York City as a member of the Project Purple team! The 13.1-mile journey begins in Brooklyn, making its way over the historic Manhattan Bridge and FDR Drive. Runners also get the unique opportunity to run through Times Square and finish in Central Park. This team raised over $175,000 for pancreatic cancer research and patient financial aid in 2025 and we’d love for you to be a part of it!
