TCS New York City Marathon 9+1 Program
NYRR's 9+1 program offers guaranteed, non-complimentary entry to the TCS New York City Marathon. You can complete the program in 2020 by registering for and completing NYRR in-person and virtual 9+1 qualifying races, selecting 9+1 qualifier credit as a canceled race resolution option, and ensuring that your NYRR membership is active.
This virtual race is one of five designated virtual races that is a 9+1 program qualifier. Additionally, the +1 volunteer portion of our program has been waived in 2020 due to limited volunteer opportunities. If you complete your 9+1 program in 2020, you will have the opportunity to select 2021, 2022, or 2023 guaranteed non-complimentary entry during the selection window in 2021. You may not be guaranteed your preferred year due to potential limitations to future field sizes.
