It was the largest marathon ever, with a record number of 50,869 starters.[1][4] With 50,564 finishers (30,035 men and 20,398 women), having an average finish time of 4:34:45, the race also broke the record for most finishers.[5][6]

The winds were exceptional this year, forcing race officials to move the start line of the wheelchair and handcycle competitions to the Brooklyn side of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, shortening the course to 23.2 miles.[1][7] Kurt Fearnley of Australia won the men's wheelchair division with a time of 1:30:55, earning his fifth New York City win.[1][8] American Tatyana McFadden successfully defended her title with a time of 1:42:16 on the shortened course, and, as a result, has become not only the sole person to have ever won four major marathons in a year (Boston, London, Chicago, and New York City), but also the sole person to do so two years in a row.[1][7]

This was the first marathon for which Tata Consultancy Services was the title sponsor.[9] In addition, the one-millionth finisher of the New York City Marathon (since the marathon was first held in 1970), Katherine Slingluff of Brooklyn, completed her race with a time of 4:43:36.[1][10]
