NYC Marathon Pictures - Love It!

[ddny]

The 2002 NYC Marathon ran through 5 bridges and 5 boroughs starting with the Verazzano Narrows Bridge on Staten Island. Most of these pictures we're taken in Brooklyn. Once again, both the Mens and Womens races we're won by the Kenyans.



First...a picture of the NYC Marathon in 1909


The race started off with Wheelchair racers first.








Talk about determination...


Then the top womens race began. Here we're the leaders at Mile 9.








Then the top mens race...


9 miles in 47 minutes and 30 seconds!




Then came the masses...
