New York City Marathon

I%26#39;m coming to New York to watch my husband run the nyc marathon in a few weeks. I would love to watch him run or finish, but everything I have read said it is a madhouse...any suggestions?

Good luck to him, and good for you for rooting!

One option is to watch him on 4th Avenue in Brooklyn. I highly recommend this, but you need to be there early, like 10 AM because you can%26#39;t cross the street once the runners are on the road.

First Avenue is another popular option, especially because this is around ';the wall'; section of the race.

But definitely be there at the end! He%26#39;ll love it and you%26#39;ll love it!

Unlikely you will be able to get to the finish line area, but the east side of Central Park around 72nd St is a nice place to watch. Then you will need to agree on a place to meet. I dont know if NYRRC still has the family reunion area, but that might be a good place to meet.
