## United Airlines NYC Half Marathon 2026 **Race Type:** Half Marathon **Location:** New York, NY **Date:** March 15, 2026 **Age at Race:** 51 **Finish Time:** 1:31:27 **Pace:** 6:59 /mi > They say it’s a marathon, not a sprint. > I chose both. Had an absolute blast running the United Airlines NYC Half Marathon. I trained for this with one goal: run fast enough to “time qualify” for the full NYC Marathon in 2027. Mission accomplished. I hit my goal with only 33 seconds to spare. Held 6:59 per mile for 13.1 miles and crossed in 1 hour 31 minutes and 27 seconds. All out effort for me. Legs completely smashed right now. That effort placed me in 2,381st place haha! But out of 30,204 people. Top 8 percent of the entire field at 51 years old. That feels pretty damn fn good. I LOVE THAT NY ENERGY! #UnitedNYCHalf **Official Time:** 1:31:27 **Average Pace:** 6:59 **Overall:** 2,381 of 30,204
