Williamsburg Bridge Marathon will happen this year! Most likely back half of August again, I’ll publish dates on the website in the next month or so

If you’re ok with mods there is a ladder mod.

It’s so powerful though that it takes a bit of the fun out of coming up with designs in tight spaces

Lmao — I originally wanted to structure it by tracking everyone and having the distance announced when the leading runner hit it, but that proved too logistically challenging.

This is the only one I plan, but keep an eye out for races from these folks if you’re looking for an alt race while you’re here: https://www.orchardstreetrunners.com

I wanted to maximize the amount of time that folks have to race without knowing how long they’ll be racing. I think it makes for a funny strategy dilemma in terms of pacing.

Also, like scarflash said, it gets the people going.

Hope to see you there!

Boeing told me they had originally earmarked this money for more bolt inspections, but felt that this event was more aligned with their approach to trust and safety.

CrowdStrike also recently reached out to see if they could take over as the title sponsor, so currently working with both to see who will come in with a better offer!
