In my first New York City Marathon in 1978 I brought an 8mm film camera. I recently digitized these. Here is the video that is the result after digitizing the 8mm films. It includes a meeting with Grete Waitz before the start. That time unknown in the USA. But she won the race, and won it 8 more times!

Take a look at this unique video:

Here is a video from my 2022 New York City Marathon weekend. I have put together pictures and also some short video clips. It shows that New York City Marathon is much more than only a road race!:

I have also made 3 videos of the course. The newest is added November 20, 2020. It's a new video where I "fly"the course. With the newest 3D galley from Google. It gives a realistic view of the course and contains 3D-buildings. Then it's a short video that gives a good overview of the course. And last a video based on Google Street View. It shows the course from street level. In the videos I have added real New York music and running altitude information. Check that sound is turned on and that you select HD quality and Full Screen.

Here is the new 2020 video:

And here is the quick view:

I have also made a version where I have used Google Street View. Here I have downloaded all the Street View pictures from Google Maps and put them together. It gives a very realistic video seen from street level. For Verrazano Narrows Bridge Street View pictures does not exist. Here I have inserted footage from my other video(see above).

Here is the Street View video:

Please give me feedback. You can also ask questions about the New York City Marathon. I have some experience after finishing 42 times!

Here is an animated video I just created. It shows a dialogue between a Marathoner and a non-runner. You can change the quality to HD and watch it full-screen (at the bottom of the video window):
