NYC Marathon
New York, US · Marathon
New York is the loudest 42.2 km you'll run. The 2026 race marks 50 years of the five-borough course after 59,226 runners made 2025 the world's largest marathon. The bridges are the real work: Verrazzano off the gun, Queensboro after halfway, then Fifth Avenue and Central Park rollers. More than 240,000 people applied to the 2026 drawing and about 1 percent got in. It is extraordinary—and a splurge.

01 · The data
Numbers, not adjectives
Every race lists elevation gain in meters, the registration type and cost in USD, qualifying times to the second, and the typical race-day temperature. If we're not sure of a field, we say so.
02 · The shortlist
Fewer, better options
We focus on races worth building a trip around, then show the tradeoffs plainly. If a date, price, or route is not confirmed, we mark it instead of filling the gap with confidence.
03 · The trip
Hotels, weather, the lot
Each race page covers where to stay near the start, the race-week forecast, getting there, and what a non-racing partner does while you're out on course.
