The 38 best marathon photos from the 2016 NYC Marathon
Our incredible marathon photos will make you smile, cry and inspire you to participate in the 26.2-mile event next year
In case you were unable to attend one of the best NYC events in November, our awesome marathon photos will give you a glimpse of what you missed. Thousands of New Yorkers participated in this inspirational event, where the Olympian-worthy runners race to complete 26.2-miles across all five boroughs. (You can view the NYC Marathon 2016 route here.) The TCS New York City marathon is basically the most spirited event in the city, and it’s one of the rare occasions where you’ll actually see Gothamites cheering each other on versus grumbling at them to move faster on the sidewalk. We sent a photographer to capture some of the most heart-warming moments, craziest getups and encouraging signage to get you pumped for next year’s affair—so enjoy! Oh, and if you know someone who ran the course yesterday, make sure to buy him or her a well-deserved drink at the best bars in NYC later. (That is, if they can still move.)
