The 2026 NYC Marathon is a point-to-point, five-borough course starting at Fort Wadsworth on Staten Island and finishing in Central Park near Tavern on the Green, crossing five bridges. It is a challenging hilly course with 246 m of elevation gain, not a PR course, and features a record-breaking field with less than 1% lottery acceptance.

Why attend here

Come for the iconic Statue of Liberty medal, but stay for a November weekend in New York when the city is crisp and festive — wander Central Park's golden foliage, catch a Broadway show, and warm up with a slice of dollar pizza or a hot pretzel from a street cart.
