Yonkers Marathon

[1][4][nb 1] Sammy Mellor helped establish the Yonkers Marathon with Edward Wetmore Kinsley, and finished second in the event's first two runnings.

[12] The 2015 (90th anniversary) course was USA Track & Field certified and served as a qualifying event for the Boston Marathon.

[13] The 2020 edition of the race was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, with all registrants automatically receiving refunds.

[14][15] The 2022 edition saw 101 finishers and Juan Fernandez De Cordova won the event in 2 hours, 48 minutes and 3 seconds.

[19] For its 90th running in 2015 the track had a newly designed course that added greater variety by eliminating the double-loop, and replacing it with a single-loop that followed a scenic route along the Hudson River, and then all over the city, past parks, past the Dunwoodie Golf Course (offering a glimpse of the distant New York City skyline), and through a variety of neighborhoods.
