Running Tour of The Hudson and High Line

Is this a race?
No, Fit Tours are non-competitive sight-running tours. We make stops at many of the most iconic Central Park landmarks along the way and talk about the history of each of them. Our active sightseeing tours will show you Central Park in an up-close and detailed way that’s unlike any other. You’ll quickly learn why we’ve been called “the ultimate NYC fitness experience”!

Can walkers sign-up?
Except for the Sunrise Yoga Tour, each of our tours involve a good deal of running, so you’ll need to be able to keep up with the group to hear the guide. Our pace is typically 9-10 min/mi. If that seems too fast for you, another option would be to sign up for one of our private runs (where we run at your pace!) or join the Sunrise Yoga Tour where we combine a good brisk walk with stretching and basic yoga poses.

How long are the tours?
Each of our tours last approximately 1 hour. Sometimes we finish 5 or 10 minutes earlier or later, depending on the overall pace of the group.

Can I run with a jogging stroller?
Although we’ve never had one, Jogging strollers are welcome. There are two large staircases along the course, but we’re happy to help carry strollers.

What's the longest distance we run without stopping?
There are a couple of legs of the 5K Fun Run that are just under .5 mi.

Do you offer bag storage?
We don’t have bag storage, so come dressed to run! However, our guides wear backpacks and have room to carry small items like keys and phones — just ask during check-in.

I didn't get a confirmation!
There is a confirmation e-mail sent from our booking company, Fare Harbor, immediately following your registration. If you haven’t received a confirmation e-mail then something is wrong and you should call us to confirm asap! They also send you a reminder e-mail 24 hours prior to your tour.

What happens if it rains?
Each of our runs is held rain or shine! If conditions are not to your liking, you can re-schedule to any of our other runs that have space available. In the event of dangerous weather (thunderstorms w lightning, extreme heat or cold, etc.) we will cancel the tour and if there aren’t any other tours that fit your schedule, you will receive a full refund.
