Course The 26.2 mi km on course covers all five boroughs of New York City. It begins on Staten Island, in Fort Wadsworth, near the approach to the Verrazzano–Narrows Bridge. The bridge, which normally carries only vehicular traffic, is closed for the event. Runners use both sides of the upper level of the bridge and the westbound side of the lower level. In the opening minutes of the race, the bridge is filled with runners, creating a dramatic spectacle that is closely associated with the event. After descending the bridge, the course winds through Brooklyn, mostly along Fourth Avenue and Bedford Avenue, for approximately the next 11 mi km. Runners pass through a variety of neighborhoods, including: Bay Ridge, Sunset Park, Park Slope, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Williamsburg, and Greenpoint. At 13.1 mi km, runners cross the Pulaski Bridge, marking the halfway point of the race and the entrance into Long Island City, Queens. After about 2.5 mi km in Queens, runners cross the East River via the Queensboro Bridge into Manhattan. Reaching Manhattan after about 16 mi km, the race proceeds north on First Avenue, then crosses briefly into The Bronx via the Willis Avenue Bridge for a mile before returning into Manhattan via the Madison Avenue Bridge. It then proceeds south through Harlem down Fifth Avenue and into Central Park. At the southern end of the park, the race proceeds across Central Park South, where thousands of spectators cheer runners on during the last mile. At Columbus Circle, the race re-enters the park and finishes outside Tavern on the Green.TCS New York Marathon http://www.tcsnycmarathon.org/sites/default/files/pictures/TCSNYCM15%20CourseMap%20v3.pdf New York Road Runners November 3, 2015 Race summary The wheelchair division was scheduled to start at 8:30 a.m. EST, the women's division at 9:20 a.m., and the men's division at 9:50 a.m. The last wave of runners was scheduled to start at 11:00 a.m.Tomkiw Lydia New York City Marathon 2015: Route Map, Start Time, Live Stream, Street Closures And More http://www.ibtimes.com/new-york-city-marathon-2015-route-map-start-time-live-stream-street-closures-more-2158896 International Business Times November 3, 2015 October 31, 2015 The weather was generally overcast with negligible wind.
