Run in the Dark New York 5K and 10K Option @ Pier A Harbor House, 22 Battery Place, New York, NY, United States on 14 November 2018

Every year, as darkness sweeps the globe, thousands of people in 50 cities will pull on their running shoes and hit the streets to Run in the Dark.

We know there are lots of running events out there, so why choose Run in the Dark New York?!

Apart from being a unique night run taking place in iconic locations around the world, there’s also an important cause fuelling this fundraising run. Run in the Dark is a global running movement helping to cure paralysis in our lifetime.

Run in the Dark is organised by the Mark Pollock Trust, named after blind Irish adventure athlete Mark Pollock. Unbroken by blindness in 1998, Mark Pollock suffered a catastrophic spinal cord injury in 2010 when he fell from a second story window that left him paralysed. As Mark strives to walk again, his most complex journey is ahead of him – to find a cure for paralysis.

By taking part in Run in the Dark you are enabling ground-breaking collaborations and research which could change the lives of millions of paralysed people around the world.

Every donation, every step, every study, moves us towards a cure for paralysis and enabling people to walk again.
