Wrr Nyc Marathon Brilliant Bus Ride!!

NYCBus

Thank you for actually reading this. It will give you insight into the inner workings of the infamous WESTCHESTER ROAD RUNNER NYC MARATHON BUS!!! Keep in mind, if situations change as we get closer, regarding start times, etc, we will adapt and adjust as necessary. If that means changing times, unfortunately that is what we will have to do. This is not rocket science or brain surgery. We are here to take one thing off your plate and give you a way down to the funnest race of the year. Some of you have done this so many times, I don't understand how you keep it up year after year. I pretty much can't plan for anything more than a day in advance. You folks keep training and running and moving forward every year. So very impressive. The following drivel, is not drivel at all, but actual information. Please read it. I'm not a patient person. I also don't like small talk. All business here. So read it and stay off my lawn. I will give you a shortcut tho if you still refuse to read. Everything is pretty much exactly as it was last year, except for a different date. NO RETURN BUS OR BAG DROP!! We repeat NO RETURN BUS OR BAG DROP!!! Now for the vital stuff: There are three separate pick up points. You do not have to specify which spot you are choosing, just be there on time. We will welcome you happily at whichever is most convenient, just be there on time. Please don't make the buses wait for you, just be there on time. (Sensing a theme?) The three departure points are: 5:30 am at Westchester Road Runner. 179 East Post Road White Plains, NY 10601 This spot is the only one that you are allowed to leave your car parked. This is new from previous years. Unfortunately, this means that if you have to park and leave a car, you have to pay to for a spot in the Lyons Place parking garage located by the store for the day. (People have played the chance game and parked in the street which is free on Sunday at 6AM but there's no guarantee) 5:45 am at the Doubletree Hotel 455 South Broadway Tarrytown, NY 10591 Parking is not allowed here. You must be dropped off. 6:00 am at the Burger King getting a makeover 826 Central Park Avenue Yonkers, NY 10704 (Southbound service road of I-87/ opposite the Cross County Shopping Center) Parking is not allowed here. You must be dropped off. We will drop you off as close to the start as we are allowed by the NYRR and the NYPD. We do not have control over this at all!!! Last year they tried a new set-up for the drop off, and it seemed to work great. I'm assuming (yes, I know what that often means) it will be the same. The stroll was quick and painless to the Fort after we banished you from the bus, and I anticipate the same this year. You will be there in plenty of time for getting to your wave and preparing to race. Even the first wave people. If the bus breaks down, we have a procured yeti's to come and carry you on their backs. For those that insist about a time, if we could predict that, we are in the wrong business. Typically, we kick you off the bus around 7:45-8:00 AM. More then enough time to get to the Fort and relax before the cannon booms. You aren't alone. You'll have your bus friends and tens of thousands of others joining you. There is a bathroom on the bus. Use it sparingly. It is not your home and others may have to utilize it. This is every piece of info that you could use and some that you have no need for. But we want to make this as seamless as possible. You have all sacrificed so much and worked so hard, that Marathon Sunday should be all about fun and enjoyment, mixed with a lot of running. It's gonna be a blasty blast for everyone, as long as you come into it with a positive energy. A full refund, minus the processing fee, is available up to Saturday, September 19th at 11:59:59 PM. One second later, at 12:00 AM on Sunday, September 20th and unfortunately there are no refunds available.  Go to the Refund Policy at the top of the page to start the process.
