The TCS New York City Marathon course is a 26.2 mile block party through the world’s most diverse city, and it’s a model for big-city marathons around the world. It has about 55,000 runners and is possibly the grandest marathon in the world. You will get to see New York City on foot, running through the 5 boroughs. Starting on Staten Island, you will first cross over to Brooklyn via the iconic Verrazano-Narrows bridge and feel the bursting pulse beats of the artistic community with their music and dance. Then you will move over to the charming neighborhood of Queens, with its diverse landscapes and housing, and then spend some quiet moments along the Queensboro Bridge before entering Manhattan and be greeted by the electrifying energy of New Yorkers lining the streets. After that exhilarating run along First Avenue, the runners will discover the cultural mix of Latin music and hip hop at the Bronx, and eventually back to Manhattan to finish their run at Central Park, a National Historic Landmark and the most visited urban park in the USA.

The TCS New York City Marathon is a challenging race, with its numerous bridges and undulating terrain but having the whole city on its feet cheering you on throughout the whole distance, makes this journey a memorable experience.  

This event will be held on Sunday 2nd November 2025.
