The race which drew 36,562 finishers in recent years will stat at 8:20 AM for the Wheelchair division with the final group, Wave 3, starting at 10:20 am. The marathon starts in Staten Island with total prizes at $500,000. VIP Tickets for bleachers will run you $75.

From Staten Island, participants will head over the Verrazano Narrows Bridge arriving in Brooklyn’s Dyker Heights. When you arrive in Brooklyn, your streets will start in the 90s and count all the way down to zero once passing Sunset Park and entering Park Slope.

In Wiliamsburg, Greenpoint, and Long Island City, you’ll have approximately 5 miles. When you leave Queens and Long Island City, you will be a the 15 mile mark.

It’s then time for the fun as the race enters into Manhattan at east 59 and heads up 1st Avenue. You will stay on 1st and go from 59 to 125th, out of Manhattan, and into the Bronx. The race only stays 1 mile in the Bronx before re-entering Manhattan.

At that point you are at mile 21. You will reenter Manhattan on 5th Ave and head straight down from 138th to roughly 87th where you then enter Central Park. The rest of the race will remain in Central Park.

Tonight the Sci Fi Channel (now SyFy) features the Essex County Hospital on Ghost Hunters. The Essex County Hospital is the location of the live Halloween Ghost Hunter special tonight.

But why the Essex County Hospital? Some of the buildings you will see on Ghost Hunter tonight were built in the 1800s and early 1900s. In 1917, a storm left patients without heat for weeks. In 20 days, 24 people died. 32 suffered frostbite.

In World War II, deaths increased. Historians put deaths at over 10,000 at Essex County Hospital. Today, some believe that ghost still walk the halls of patients who have tragically died.

The Essex County Hospital has been featured on Ghost Adventures (Travel Channel), and the movie Choke. And even worse …… the Chicago Sun Times reports tonight to “keep an eye out for satanic dark energy in Building Five.” !!!
