The race was held in the wake of the September 11 attacks, thus the course was altered and mass participation was significantly down on previous years. Around 2800 police officers were present to ensure security, a no-fly zone was instituted above the race route, and runners were discouraged from accepting water from spectators on the route. The race adopted the slogan "United We Run" and the city's mayor, Rudy Giuliani, was given the number 1 bib, which is typically reserved for the men's defending champion.Fendrich, Howard (2001-11-04).

Prior to 2001, the only time qualifications were for runners that bordered on sub-elite (sub-2:30 for men and sub-3:00 for women). In 2001, the qualification standards were loosened to accommodate more runners. A new set of standards for half marathons were also introduced, allowing runners to use a time from a half marathon to earn guaranteed entry into the New York City Marathon.Rock Brian 2025-05-29 The History of the New York City Marathon Qualifying Times https://runningwithrock.com/history-nyc-marathon-qualifying-times/ 2025-06-02 Running with Rock en-US +2001 Qualifying Times for Guaranteed Entry to the NYC MarathonAgeMen's MarathonWomen's MarathonMen's Half MarathonWomen's Half MarathonUnder 402:45:003:15:001:16:001:31:0040 and Over3:00:003:30:001:24:001:39:00 References Results 2001 New York Marathon Results.
