Feel like staying active but getting bored of running aimlessly around the block? Check out a few of this week’s NYC events for those that want to get out, have some fun and keep in shape at the same time.

Percy Sutton Harlem 5K Run - Manhattan - August 23^rd

Take a mobile look at Harlem in this race that honors one of the big names behind the New York City Marathon. A mellow run/walk event for those that want to get out and exercise without feeling the need to race to be first at the finish line.

Track or Die NYC - The Warriors Race - New York - August 23^rd and 24^th

Feel like pushing yourself to the limit? Sign up for this dusk-til-dawn bike ride and see if you have what it takes. Teams must number from 6 to 9, but if you get all dressed up, there’s the chance to win $1000 if you happen to have the best costumes. An event that’s definitely not for the faint of heart.
