Review the baggage options here. A quick note on baggage: On race day, runners must leave Central Park via the exit that corresponds to their baggage option. If a runner chooses the bag-check option, we will not order him/her a poncho, and he/she will not be able to claim one after completing the race, even if he/she decides not to check a bag after all.
-Transportation
Review the transportation options here. A quick note on transportation: If a runner does not want official TCS New York City Marathon transportation to the start, he/she should select "I do not need transportation."
