If you're waking up and saying - hey, I need to get started on my New York City Marathon qualifying races, here's a quick look at what's upcoming for January thru March:
*Jan. 9: Joe Kleinerman 10K is near capacity, so sign up now!
*Jan. 24: Manhattan Half is sold out
*Feb. 7: NYRR Gridiron 4M
*Feb. 20: Al Gordon 4M is a marathon qualifier this year (though still held in Prospect Park)
*March 7: Washington Heights Salsa, Blues and Shamrock 5K is the first club points race of the season
*March 20: United Airlines NYC Half has charity spots open
That's it for the first three months of the year. A couple of other things to note:
*Jan. 28 is when the entries for the May 21 Brooklyn Half open (and quite possibly close)
*March 26: Central Park Spring Classic is *not* a marathon qualifier. However, the Scotland Run being held the following weekend is (entries are not open yet)
