The ING New York City Marathon will be held on November 7th. The 26 mile race begins at the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and ends in Central Park.

In 1976, in celebration of the U.S. bicentennial, NYRR moved the marathon to the streets of New York’s five boroughs: Staten Island, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Manhattan. There are many resources for the race, including an interactive map and blog to help fans participate in the event.
