“If you build it, they will run.” And run. And run. And run. In fact, you’ll run around the most picturesque island this side of Lady Liberty…NINE times! Make history on an island full of history by running the first marathon ever on Governors Island. Your entry includes ferry rides for you and any guests, a cool race shirt, some tasty post-race eats, and one well-earned Finisher Medal. This is a limited entry race with only a few hundred spots available, so don’t wait too long to enter or you’ll be out of luck.
