You can't beat the Central Park scenery! Race support was great and the volunteers were really nice! The stage and host area were hard to see and hear, which made the start of the race feel a bit lackluster if you weren't in the first couple corrals. It's NYC, so don't even think about driving. The subway is your best bet and guaranteed to avoid running in to road closures. This year's medal was super cool with transparent shapes and cut outs for a funky twist. Also the tech shirt is high quality! Women supporting women is such a wonderful feeling, which made the energy of this race feel extra special. Highly recommend!
