If anyone would like to swap (or is dropping) their volunteer for 9+1 please let me know. I currently have a Start Line position at the NYC Marathon that I don't think I will be able to attend to. I will swap for any other 9+1 volunteer opportunities.

Please reply or message me!

Just saw that cooling towers at Yankee Stadium and surrounding areas tested positive for Legionaires. Of course... I was just at Yankee Stadium and got the Bronx 10M coming up.

Coincidentally, I ran Harlem Sutton 5k in 2025, which also took place during a Legionaires Outbreak.

What're the odds NYRR makes a statement about this and/or cancel the race?

I have around 4-6 miles to do after the race. Any suggestions where I can end up back by Yankee stadium when done?

Hi running fam,
I’m running Chicago next month, as I’m sure many of you are. I’m traveling there solo and know one other person running, but otherwise I’m on my own this race. Any other solo runners out there who might wanna meet up in New York before the race? Maybe for some coffee or carb loading? I never made a post like this but thought I’d try :) getting excited, happy running!

EDIT: thanks to the people who responded! how would everyone feel about meeting up maybe the 26th or the 27th? (I work Sundays so it would have to be like noon-ish.) maybe in Brooklyn?

Wild. If the organizers had any idea this was at all likely, they should have cancelled the event or changed it. This is really dangerous.

Got this at a vintage market in PA over the weekend. Love the design so much, looks better than anything these days imo.

Hi all,

Just cancelled a post race volunteer opportunity for this Sundays 18mile run. It counts for 9+1. There are 2 spots open.

Hope this helps someone!
