Queens Marathon Expo — Back at the Queens Museum! We’ll offer bib pickup, exclusive merch, local vendors, and panel talks with athletes, community leaders, and race organizers. This will be our 3rd formal Expo, a milestone as we continue building the Queens Marathon into a recognized grassroots event. It’s a place to meet the crew behind Queens Distance Runners, learn how we build races from the ground up, and get inspired by the stories of runners from across the five boroughs and around the world.
