The race is well organized and monitored by the staff and volunteers. I enjoyed every mile of it except for the Queensboro Bridge. Make sure to practice gradual long inclines in your training as there are two big ones.
Crowds are INCREDIBLE at every mile and borough. No need for even a water bottle. Every mile after three had water and gatorade. SIS gels were available at mile 12 and 18. The signs from the crowds were entertaining. It is a bucket list item for me and I am already considering doing it again. Weather was 10/10. Low 50’s.

I knew race had hills but it didn’t come until mile 10. Rest were rolling hills. First mile was in the rain and then it tapered off to off and on. I had to be careful especially going downhills. At some parts of the race, it was crowded and difficult to push ahead. Mike 10-12 was an uphill that doesn’t seem to end until 13 where you pick up to the finish. I wish they had more port-o-potties along the course and volunteers with the drinks. Medal is really awesome and worth the run. I wasn’t focused on my time knowing it is rainy and hilly. Nevertheless, the less am glad I did it.

A fairly flat course with plenty of room to run. Not so crowded. Water station every mile which was great. I was well until mile 20 where I hit the wall. Pushed through till the finish. Crowd was great. The after party was the best. Live band and people having a good time. I would definitely run this again.
