Sea Lion Stride: 5K and 10K

If you’re looking for a run that combines scenic views with a friendly vibe, the Sea Lion Stride offers just that. Choose between a 5K or 10K route along the New York State Parks trail by the Niagara Gorge, with the longer distance reaching Devil’s Hole State Park. Whether running, walking, or pushing a stroller, this event welcomes all paces and ages, including kids under six who join free. Signing up before September 10th also gets you an official Sea Lion 5K t-shirt, adding a nice keepsake to your experience. Beyond the route, the event supports the Aquarium of Niagara’s pinniped residents, giving your participation a meaningful touch. The mix of casual and serious participants creates a relaxed atmosphere where you can enjoy the outdoors without pressure. It’s a chance to spend time outside, appreciate the natural surroundings, and share the day with others who enjoy a good run or walk. Whether solo or with friends, it’s an easy way to add movement and fresh air to your day.
