Race Info

The Yonkers Marathon is a marathon race held annually in Yonkers, New York. Founded in 1907, it is the second oldest marathon in the United States, after the Boston Marathon. The race now runs in mid-September, starting and finishing near the Yonkers train station on Buena Vista Avenue along the Hudson River waterfront. In addition to the marathon, race weekend includes a half marathon and a 5K. From 1938 to 1965, and again in 1974, the race served as the USA Marathon Championships. Wikipedia
