On Saturday, August 12, 2023, photojournalist Seitu Oronde covered the kickoff of Harlem Week 2023 the Percy Sutton Harlem 5K Run in Harlem, NY.
The event, held in collaboration with the Greater Harlem Chamber of Commerce, was part of the annual celebration of Harlem’s finest aspects. Harlem Week spotlights Harlem’s vibrant history from arts, culture, religion, business, entertainment, sports and more.
Families joined the Percy Sutton Harlem 5K for the Rising New York Road Runners event, which provided a day of free racing excitement for the entire family.
Participating in an NYRR race means more than just competing; it’s also about contributing to meaningful causes. NYRR’s endeavors extend to empowering and motivating individuals through running, while also supporting their free youth and community programs such as Rising New York Road Runners, NYRR Striders, Open Run, and more.
