The race will begin at the stairwell entrance on the mezzanine level inside 30 Rockefeller Plaza. There will be a staggered start with approximately 10-15 heats, each heat starting approximately 1 minute apart. Each runner will race the 69 flights to the finish at the Top of the Rock™ Observation Deck. Post-race refreshments and awards ceremony will follow.

Heats will be based on participants’ previous race experience and be determined by race officials. Each heat will consist of 10-15 runners whose overall time will be based on their chip start and finish time.

Each runner will receive a NIKE Run the Rock Dri-FIT shirt (t-shirt sizes are on a first-come-first-serve basis at packet pick-up). Prizes will be awarded to the top 5 overall male winners and the top 5 overall female winners.
