The 2015 TCS New York City Marathon is in the books, and the consensus is that it rocked. The day featured near-ideal weather, new records, inspiring American performances, a new 1.8-mile race for kids, and Spike Lee—the quintessential New York sports fan—serving as Grand Marshal. Race director Peter Ciaccia exhorted the approximately 50,000 runners to “have fun at New York’s biggest block party.”
On a weekend when the city also hosted the World Series and countless Halloween happenings, that was a pretty bold statement. But the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon lived up to it.
