Dear Runner,
In just a few short weeks, we’ll be welcoming you to NYC for the experience of a lifetime. As you put the finishing touches on your training, please take a few moments to read this handbook, and make sure to pack it with you for the marathon. It’s chock-full of information that will help you during your time here—from getting to the expo to planning fun activities for your friends and family.
For details and the latest updates, watch your inbox for e-mails and check out the official marathon website, ingnycmarathon.org. Even if you’ve run with us before, there are lots of exciting new activities and events this year—the Mara-thon Opening Ceremony featuring the Parade of Nations and Inaugural Hall of Fame Presentation on Friday night, the NYRR Dash to the Finish Line 5K race through Midtown on Saturday morning for marathoners, friends, and family, and much more.
It’s hard to describe the special energy in NYC during Marathon Week, as 45,000 runners from around the world assemble to take on the challenge of running 26.2 miles through our incredible city. Perhaps Chilean miner Edison Peña captured the feeling best last year when he said after his historic run: “I wanted to show the world that I could do it. I struggled with myself, with my own pain. But I made it to the finish line.” That’s what it’s all about, right? We’re just so excited that you’ll be with us this year to take on the challenge, the struggle…and the achievement of crossing that finish line in Central Park.
This year, you can also look forward to unparalleled access to the race, even if you’re not running. In addition to our exciting broadcast coverage, we’re offering an enhanced Mobile Spectator App that lets marathoners and spectators put all 26.2 miles in their pocket. And, as ever, we have a top field of world-class athletes including defending men’s champion Gebre Gebremariam, as well as an extraordinary wheelchair field; more than 200 charity partners aiming to top last year’s fundraising total of $30.8 million; and our own NYRR Team for Kids helping us transform the lives of children.
It will all be here before you know it—but you’ll be ready, trust us. And our team—hardworking NYC agencies, dedicated sponsors, the best volunteers anywhere, and amazing NYRR staff and board of directors—will be ready for you. We can hardly wait.
Yours in running,

MARIA MORRA: 4-TIME ING NEW YORK CITY MARATHONER The Rudin Familyis proud to present The Samuel Rudin Trophy to the winners of the
ING NEW YORK CITY MARATHONSUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2011
The Rudin Trophy is given in memory of their beloved father, grandfather and great-grandfather, a long distance runner for the Pastime Athletic Club in the
Bronx between 1917 and 1923.
Samuel Rudin (1896- 1975)An avid long distance runner and civic leader, Samuel Rudin rose from humble beginnings on New York’s Lower East Side to become one of New York’s major builders and owners of real estate. Rudin joined the Pastime Athletic Club in the Bronx in 1917 while a student at City College and competed in long distance races as a member of the club through 1923. In 1925, he founded the Rudin Management Company, a real estate firm which presently owns and manages 22 multi-story apartment houses and 16 office buildings in Manhattan. Samuel Rudin was actively involved with many charitable organizations in New York City, including the United Jewish Appeal, Federation of Jewish Philanthropies, City College Fund and the Boy Scouts of America. In 1967, he was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws degree by Iona College in New Rochelle, New York. Today the Rudin Family continues to play a major philanthropic role in New York City.

FROM OUR MEDICAL DIRECTORpacket at the start of a race. If you’re running a half-marathon or marathon, take
another salt packet at the halfway point. After the race, drink a sports drink that has
some sodium, and eat salted foods.
DRINK FOR THIRST. If you feel thirsty while running or racing, have 4 to 8 ounces
of fluid (preferably a sports drink that has some sodium in it) at an aid station or
whenever you feel that you need it. If you aren’t thirsty, don’t feel compelled to drink.
If you can’t use thirst as a guide, drink no more than a cup (8 ounces) of fluid every
30 minutes. Do not overdrink. Overhydrating can lead to hyponatremia (low blood
sodium); this condition can lead to nausea, fatigue, vomiting, weakness, sleepiness,
and—in the most severe instances—seizures, coma, and death. Before you run, check
the color of your urine: It should be pale yellow, like lemonade. Dark-colored urine
(like tea) indicates dehydration; completely clear urine may indicate overhydration.
In training, weigh yourself before and after your runs to get a sense of how much to
drink to replace the fluids lost. You should aim to weigh the same or no more than 2
percent less after you train. You’ll need to drink more in warm, humid weather than on
a cool, dry day.
AVOID NSAIDS (NON-STEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS) starting 24
hours before your race. These drugs, which include ibuprofen and naproxen sodium,
can limit blood flow to the kidneys, increasing the risk of low sodium (hyponatremia).
You can start taking them again six hours after the race. Tylenol (acetaminophen) is a
safe alternative before and during the race.
DON’T TAKE ANTI-DIARRHEAL OR COLD MEDICINES ON RACE DAY. These
drugs can have a dehydrating effect.
ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR BODY—DON’T OVEREXTEND. Train sensibly—
increase the distance and speed of your runs gradually, and recover by resting and
refueling between hard workouts—so that you don’t dig yourself into a hole. Working
with a coach or training group can help you stay within safe and healthy parameters.
Listen to your body. Don’t ignore feelings of illness. An “off” or “just not right” feeling
can be a sign of a serious medical problem. The marathon medical team is available at
the start, every mile along the course, and at the finish. Most runners who spend time
at a medical aid station are able to finish the race.
ON RACE DAY. Make sure your friends and family know the Runner Information
Hotline number: 800.496.6193. They can call that number if they’re unsure of your
whereabouts after the race; they must know your race number.
FROM OUR MEDICAL DIRECTORSTAY SAFE and HEALTHY in TRAINING and on RACE DAYBY STUART WEISS, MD, NYRR MEDICAL DIRECTOR
Running is one of the healthiest things you can do for yourself, but as in any sport,
there can be health and medical risks. Follow these tips to stay safe.
HAVE A PHYSICAL EXAM BEFORE YOU START A REGULAR EXERCISE
PROGRAM. Tell your physician the planned volume and intensity of your training and
racing. Be as clear and precise as possible; for example: “I plan to start a walk/run
program and gradually build up to running. My goal is to run a five-hour marathon in
November.” The exam should also include a discussion with your doctor about health
risks based on your family and personal health history.
HAVE AN ANNUAL PHYSICAL, NO MATTER HOW HEALTHY YOUR LIFESTYLE.
Many conditions and syndromes are unrelated to your exercise level and have mild or
vague symptoms or no symptoms at all. If you’re over 40, get an exercise stress test,
and follow up after the exam by getting any other tests that are recommended. See
your doctor immediately at any time if you experience new chest pain, pressure, un-
usual sweating, or shortness of breath. Less urgently, see a sports medicine physician
if you feel any pain while running that causes you to change your form.
USE CAFFEINE CAUTIOUSLY BEFORE RACES. If you habitually drink a cup or
two of coffee or tea in the morning before you run or race, or consume a caffeine-
containing energy gel during a run, feel free to do the same on race day. If you don’t
normally use caffeine before or during your run, don’t do so on race day; you may
experience dehydration or stomach upset. Some research suggests that the caffeine
equivalent of two cups of coffee can limit blood flow to the heart during exercise.
Discuss your risk with your doctor so you can make the best decision.
CONSIDER TAKING A BABY ASPIRIN BEFORE YOU RUN OR RACE. Some
doctors recommend a daily baby aspirin (81 mg) to runners to reduce the risk of
sudden death while running due to clumps of platelets forming in the blood. Discuss
this risk with your doctor so that you can make an informed and responsible decision.
TAKE SALT BEFORE AND DURING RUNS AND RACES OF 10K OR LONGER,
unless salt is contraindicated by your doctor. Consume salty foods in the days leading
up to the run or race, and ingest common table salt before and during your work-
out or race to maintain the body’s water-to-sodium balance. Take one fast-food salt

eration. Please bring government-issued photo ID to all marathon-related events, and
