    NYC Marathon: Over 35,000 Winners!

    By sjunat55  |  Posted November 1, 2009  |  New York, New York
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     sjunat55 told me, 'Over 35,000 runners, over 26 miles, I think everyone who has the guts to even start and try to finish deserves one of those medals.'
    - hhanks, CNN iReport producer

    These guys and girls took part in a race that spans New York City- from the foot of the Verrazano Bridge in Staten Island to Central Park in Manhattan- hitting Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx. Millions of people along the route cheered for them, without even knowing them.

    They made it to the park, and I took pictures of them on Central Park West as they came out.

    Everyone of them with a medal- every one a winner!

    1-Luizzo from Sicily

    2-Alvaro from Mexico

    3-Stephanie from Canada

    4-Rocco, from the Nassau County PD

    5-FDNY's John Coffee

    6-John Meissino NYPD

    7-Shawna from Seattle

    8-Rafael from Brazil

    9-Giacomo from Verona, Italy

    10-Elvi from France

     

    From Central Park West as they finished running the New York City Marathon on November 1, 2009.
