Race Day Information
Captain Information Runner Information

Company captains must collect their packets at JPMorgan Chase & Co. in the lower lobby located at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10017 - 47th Street/Vanderbilt Avenue entrance.

Tuesday, May 28 3:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
Wednesday, May 29 3:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Race packets will only contain labeled race numbers and pins for participants. Links to all memos, maps, rules and the safety bulletin will be emailed to all runners so they can view this information online. Distribute assigned race numbers and remind participants to fill out the medical emergency information on the back of the race number. Please publicize the location of your company meeting place.


RACE START FORMAT

There will be NO ACCESS to the Start area from any point north of the Start Line.  All runners with red, yellow, green, blue and orange race numbers must walk to the Start area by turning right (if coming from the Hospitality Village) to proceed up West Drive northbound from 72nd Street. Runners with these colored numbers will line up from the Start Line in separate corrals (by color) in the order above.

All entrants with WHITE race numbers must line up at the Start corral on West Drive just south of 72nd Street. Those with WHITE numbers should walk to their start corral by taking the pathways through the picnic areas towards Tavern on the Green, and turning right on West Drive, to avoid the congestion along 72nd Street. If accessing the White start corral from 72nd Street, turn left onto West Drive (if coming from the Hospitality Village) at the WHITE Start banner, heading towards Tavern on the Green until you reach the back of the pack.

There will be six separate Start Waves, each designated by its own color (see above), with its own corral. Each corral will have its own entry point marked by signs in the designated color and wave description. The corrals will be defined by barricades and monitored by security guards. Access to the start corrals will be by colored race number only. No exceptions. All race numbers have been assigned and there are no changes before or on race day.
