Just like the NYC Marathon, I go to a discount store before the race and for $30 get sweat pants and a zipped/hooded sweatshirt (the hood offers a little extra warmth). To me, that means shorts for the race, but layers to get to the start and hang in the corral until gun time.īut it’s going to be cold at the start, so you’re going to want to bring some throwaway clothes.
Right now it’s predicted to be a high of 52 and low of 37. But that doesn’t mean that the weather on race day will cooperate. Keep in mind this is March in NYC and if you live anywhere in the Northeast, you probably ran in shorts for your training because of the wacky weather we now have. I’ve run the race for the past nine years and since it’s moved to March have worn a pair of light tights and pullover every year. Also, if you’re running and meeting other runners after, it help to know if they’ve already finished (and between you and I, it’s also where you can find out if you beat your friends). Check it out.Īlso, if you’re spectating, you can track your runner and know where to be when on the course to see them. You a bunch of metrics like how accurate you were with sticking to a training plan, the pace of your tempo runs, your furthest run – and it spits out a prediction for your race.
I’ve found that the race predictor is scarily accurate. Whether you’re running or spectating, you’ll get the latest news, updates, maps of the course, baggage area, expo and more. So, a few things to keep in mind for race day. Here’s the chart showing wave times that include baggage and corral openings and closings.
