The TCS New York City Marathon's finish line in Central Park near Tavern on the Green is one of the world's great sporting spectacles for fans and runners alike, drawing over a million spectators who line the course from Staten Island through all five boroughs to cheer 50,000 runners every first Sunday of November. Staking out a spot at the finish line hours early and watching elite runners cross followed by thousands of emotional first-time marathoners is a profoundly moving sports fan experience that costs nothing.
