A marathon like no other with its superb route through the five boroughs of New York City, unmatched 2-million spectators lining the route to cheer you along and its finish in the most famous green in the world, Central Park.

Quite simply, it's awesome and we would love to have you with us this fall.

We can offer you a guaranteed place with either flights and hotel, or just flights or accommodation. Whichever package you choose, all Team CF runners get the following when you sign up:

• Official bus or ferry to the start of the New York City Marathon (NYCM)
• NYCM finishers medal & commemorative t-shirt (only if you finish!)
• Entry in the Continental Airlines International Friendship Run including souvenir t-shirt (06/11/10)
• Team CF running vest or t-shirt to wear with pride on M-Day
• Team CF online interactive training zone; including training plans, nutrition & injury advice etc.
• Team CF newsletters, regular e-newsletters and support from sign up to post-run in NYC
• Option to be reimbursed for flight and / or hotel costs.

This is sure to be one of the most fantastic things you ever do, so hit the Need more info? button and we'll send you details.
