NYRR 9+1K Program for Guaranteed Entry to the ING New York City Marathon
As the needs of the city, the country, and the world have changed, the goals of New York Road Runners have transcended the creation of innovative running events to include the overwhelming – and overwhelmingly important – task of improving the health and wellness of our nation. Through our dynamic youth, community, and volunteer programs, we reach tens of thousands of underserved individuals each year and welcome you to partner with us to transform lives through running through your pursuit of a Guaranteed Entry into the ING New York City Marathon.
Members of New York Road Runners since January of a calendar year who completed at least nine NYRR-scored, qualifying races and made a $1,000 USD donation in the same year are eligible for guaranteed entry to the next year’s ING New York City Marathon. The donation component of this “9+1K Program” supports NYRR’s long-standing and significant commitment to providing free and low-cost programs to those who need them most.
