Comments: Thank you so much for putting this website together for the NYC Marathon! Your record of marathons is amazing! I’m a late bloomer - I didn’t start running until I was 45. Now 9 years later, I’ve run 20 half marathons and 2 full. The NYC Marathon was on my bucket list and I’m so excited that I get to run in it this year and also visit NYC for the first time! I want to get the full experience. I can’t afford the hotels, so I’m staying at Airbnb in Harlem, so won’t be able to walk back after the race, so hopefully can catch taxi or Uber. I’m a little worried about navigating to the start on my own, but hopefully from the race website or your website I can figure it out. I hope I’ll get the opportunity to meet you! I’m not a fast runner, but steady. I just can’t wait for this amazing NYC marathon and visiting NYC! Best of luck to all runners! Happy Training!
