Preparation and points to check

Race-day instructions

  • The course changed in the Bronx in 2026. The reference GPX predates that change: compare it with the official map for your edition before using it to plan.
  • The official runner health page describes water and sports drink from mile 3 to mile 25, except miles 5, 7 and 9, and gels at miles 12 and 18. Check these details for your edition: they are not confirmation for a future race.

Checks before the start

  • Read the official rules for your edition.
  • Check registration and bib collection.
  • Plan transport to the start and from the finish.
  • Check the schedule, cutoffs and start-area access.
  • Locate aid stations and plan your fueling.
  • Compare this reference track with the organiserโ€™s course.

Differences and information still uncertain

These items are shown explicitly so an approximation is never presented as official data.

  • The GPX is an unofficial reference track from an earlier or unknown edition; it may differ from your race.
  • Check aid-station locations, supplies and schedules for your edition with the organiser.
