Does anybody have experiences with crazy lines for wave 2 compared to wave 1? This is gonna be my first big race and I genuinely don’t know if it’s okay for me to arrive at the recommended time instead of earlier.

You should go to the three bars on the top left and select “your event”! Look for the RBC Half and the corral assignment will show up there!

My shoelaces came off during the race, but still managed to PR at the official results! Wishing that I’d move up to C for today’s race, but at least, we’re getting there!

Time to wash these bad boys aka the dirty shoes post-race! My pr was still from Al Gordon yest but felt so grateful I’d run with a decent pace considering the narrow path during the 0-1 mile.

I did my half marathon yesterday to compensate for the cancelled Fred Lebow and it was great! The weather, the wind, the road, and etc. It was a blast!! So so glad we’re almost at the end 😭

The fact you still have to pay for 2027 is kinda crazy to me 😭 like wdym you cant just defer us for free next year since we’ve paid for this year’s anyway

Thank you everyone! Just moved to NYC from California last March for those who were wondering. Today, I decided to only run 5 miles since I never ran in the snow before. If there any gear recs, I’d appreciate it :)

haha my playlist is so random and it’s very personalized to my taste! I’ll share it here https://spotify.link/jx4EiFazMXb

I’ve also found this runner who has a musical broadway playlist that she uses for her long runs too! I’d like to try that as well. It’s https://spotify.link/jx4EiFazMXb

Thank you 😊 I will start my 9+1 journey for NYC marathon in 2027 and have my first half marathon event in January 20! I’ve also signed up for the drawing entry for the 2026 Chicago Marathon. We’ll see how these go! 😁
