linolive Posted March 19, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 19, 2011 For those of you who are sailing from NYC tomorrow, I just heard on the radio that the NY City Half Marathon will take place. The map of the route can be found on this page: http://www.halfmarathons.net/usa_hal..._marathon.html The race starts in Central Park at 7:30 a.m., then takes 7th Avenue to W 42nd Street and heads towards the Hudson River. It reaches 12th Avenue south of the Intrepid Museum but North of the Lincoln Tunnel. The race heads south on 12th Avenue and ends near Battery Park. I couldn't find any specific information about road closures, but I would expect more traffic and delays than usual for a Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ontime Departure Posted March 19, 2011 #3 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Thanks for that info and map. I would have been sitting in cross town traffic in midtown banging my head against the steering wheel! Now I can take the Triboro and go accross 125th Glenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linolive Posted March 19, 2011 Author #4 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Are you sailing on the Jewel tomorrow? We are, otherwise I probably wouldn't have paid much attention when they mentioned the marathon on the radio. Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
