The 2005 ING New York City Marathon
The premier event of the New York Road Runners, the ING New York City Marathon is one of the world's great road races, drawing more than 85,000 applicants. The race attracts many world-class professional athletes, not only for the more than $500,000 in prize money, but also for the chance to excel in the media capital of the world before two million cheering spectators and 260 million worldwide television viewers. As any one of the 635,000 past participants will attest, crossing the finish line in Central Park is one of the great thrills of a lifetime.
With its more than 35,000 runners coming from all 50 states and countries around the globe, the marathon is as diverse as New York City itself and few events better symbolize the passion and determination of the people of this city. We at Duane Reade are thrilled to be associated with the ING New York City Marathon - one of the many things that make being a New Yorker truly rewarding.
