The NYRR Half-Marathon Grand Prix Presented by Continental Airlines follows a longstanding tradition of welcoming runners to scenic, history-rich courses in New York City's five boroughs to race the popular half-marathon (13.1-mile) distance.
Every runner who completes at least four of the five races within the calendar year earns a commemorative patch, and those who run all five receive a certificate and special gift.
Each race in the series also counts toward qualifying for guaranteed entry to the ING New York City Marathon.
