Cupid's Chase 5K Manhattan takes place at Central Park's Naumburg Bandshell in New York City on February 20, 2027. Despite its name, the event features a 1-mile distance rather than the standard 5K. The race starts at 10:00 AM, making it accessible for early-morning training or a midday outing. Entry fees range significantly from $40 to $10,000, likely reflecting various sponsorship or charity tier options. As a winter event in Manhattan, runners should prepare for February conditions in New York. The Central Park location provides a classic urban running setting for this Valentine's Day-themed event.
