On The Run at NYC Marathon Dash to the Finish Line 5K
In the latest installment of “On The Run at the 2013 ING New York City Marathon,” we broadcast from the Dash to the Finish Line 5k, a run from the United Nations to the marathon finish line in Central Park. More than 5,000 runners joined the race, including a stacked field of Olympians.
We bring you the race and chat with some of the favorites including Shalane Flanagan, Molly Huddle, Sally Kipyego, Evan Jager, Lopez Lomong, and Nick Willis.
Plus, the amazing story of Bryan Steinhauer: after languishing in a coma following a life-threatening attack, Steinhauer re-learned to talk, walk, and run. Now he’s taking on the ING New York City Marathon.
Join Tim Hutchings, Carrie Tollefson and and me as we cover a world-class field of athletes on marathon eve.

Thanks Karla – that was great. The Bryan Steinhauer story is incredible. I have some friends running the marathon tonight. Can’t wait to see how they go!

Thanks, Ewen! We watched Bryan cross the marathon finish line yesterday and I talked to him after the race. It will be in our next and last episode–the marathon recap. Hope your friends had fun!

The 5k was awesome, other then the starting mat missing my chip. Weather was perfect and it’s always good when you’re not slogging across the marathon finish line.
That’s frustrating! Did you wear a watch? Hopefully you can submit that time. A friend of mine was able to do that at a race where the mat missed his finish time. The weather was amazing. It was a great day to be in the park!
