Being born and raised in Queens I am a little biased but this is a fun race. The course is fairly flat and so you can get a good PR here. For those who haven't ran flushing meadows park you get to run around the unisphere and see Citi field. Parking is a bit difficult but getting here via the 7 line is easy. Swag is usually a singlet. There's no real expo or huge post race event but you do get a finisher medal and counts towards the 4 of 6 for the united half guaranteed entry.
