About the Rubin Run
The Rubin Run is held at a JCC campus in Tenafly and carries a theme of inclusion throughout. Several distance options mean the morning draws everyone from competitive runners to kids doing their own fun run, and a Finish Fest keeps people around after the last runner comes in.
Campus parking is extremely tight due to construction, so the race runs a satellite lot off Sylvan Avenue with frequent shuttle service to and from the JCC. Packet pickup is available at the Health and Wellness desk on the couple of evenings before the race, with a registration tent on-site race morning as a backup.

Finish-Time Stats
Going by the 2026 results, this is a decent-sized field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Rubin Run has been held every year since at least 2013. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Sep 22, 2026.
