2009 new york city marathon: results and photos



the 2009 nyc marathon (its 40th anniversary) is in the books. it was my 8th time running that fantastic point to point course from staten island to central park - and it's my favorite race of any distance. my 3:39:07 finish included two bathroom stops. but even factoring in those two distractions, i wouldn't have run under 3:30 - so the time was a modest disappointmet. in all other respects - especially the social aspect - it was a great day!

here is my race report. and here are the official results from the nyrr.

here are a few race photos:
