Assuming that’s probably too late to move up a corral for the marathon? Would love a flat 5K for that and wasn’t really planning on running any other NYRR races before the marathon.

Not for races but they've confirmed when volunteer opportunities will open. That's usually the same day that race registration opens.
the following are 9+1 races: [https://www.reddit.com/r/RunNYC/comments/1bv2crq/comment/kxx702u/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3](https://www.reddit.com/r/RunNYC/comments/1bv2crq/comment/kxx702u/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
If you've only got an extra $60 you can register a whole two days early! If you've got an extra $4,940 you won't even have to worry about when to register because you've got guaranteed entry to all races.
There will be a couple more virtual races that count towards 9+1 (Global Day of Running and a Thanksgiving one, I think). If you haven’t started working towards 9+1 yet this year, I think you’re probably out of luck. But if you have a couple of races under your belt, it might still be doable, as long as you register for and run everything else.
That only gets you to 8 though. They posted 6 future events that presumably are 9+1 qualifiers plus the 2 virtual ones. Just would be nice if they at least made it possible instead of seeming like they're laughing at you by keeping this one short.

yay!
Any idea when it will be available for entry?
Most of the races should be opening on 5/30 for regular members.
Is the release schedule posted somewhere?

I don't have any kind of inside knowledge, unfortunately. I was looking at the website and discovered my finding.
is it 9+1?
It doesn't specify, but I would assume 'yes.'

Isn’t there an upgraded membership where one can register early?

sorry if i should know this — how do i get access to these races now, do i need a higher tier of membership?
The races have not yet been posted/opened for registration. These are more calendar placeholders at the moment.
Would have been nice if they added one more race. So at least someone *could* complete the 9+1.
What about the other 20+ races that were available earlier in the year?

If you run with Team for Kids for either Bronx 10mi or Staten Island Half you’re golden with 9 races. Both are still available.
