The TCS New York Marathon. From Fort Wadsworth on Staten Island, crossing the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, runners pass through all five boroughs of New York City to the finish line in Central Park. But behind those thousands of people gathering all together is one organization that has kept the city running, quite literally, for more than six decades: New York Road Runners.
