The organization hosting the race, the New York Road Runners , has put out a warning for runners as they take their final steps in preparing for the 26.2-mile course. “Luckily we start a lot earlier,” McFadden said. The race starts at approximately 8 a.m. “Take your hydration seriously … You’ll be probably a lot more dehydrated, much more than probably your runs you had a couple of weeks ago. Key in that hydration and rest leading up to the marathon.”
NYRR gave runners these tips for racing on a day like the warm and humid one runners should be expecting this year.
