ING New York City Marathon
There are few experiences like running the ING New York City Marathon! With five bridges, five boroughs and two million spectators lining the course, this is an event that you most definitely should not miss.
From the buzz of the early morning arrival by bus on Staten Island where 35,000 runners nervously wait for the start, to the finish in Central Park, your emotions work overtime as you take in the sights and sounds of one of the world’s most vibrant cities. Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and then the streets of Manhattan take you on a running journey like no other.
The Meningitis Trust has a limited number of guaranteed places for which we ask that runners pledge a minimum of £1,450 in sponsorship with a registration fee of £50. As we are not associated with any tour operators you are open to make your own travel and accommodation arrangements, leaving you free to stay as long as you like!
If you have your own place through the international ballot we would be delighted to have you on our team.
All of our runners will receive:
• Top quality Meningitis Trust running vest
• Marathon training plan
• Fundraising pack including sponsor forms and fundraising tips
• Online sponsorship facility to help with your fundraising
• Full support from a designated member of events team
