NEW YORK CITY MARATHON
2023

The New York City Marathon can be considered as having the most embedded running culture among the world's six major marathons. This marathon, where the entire city cheers and supports runners, can be said to be an experience unlike any other marathon. Whether you are a runner on the course or a non-runner cheering for friends, it's a festive day for everyone. I captured this festival through my perspective.
Around mile 19, leaving about 6 miles of the 26.2-mile journey, I cheer for the runners at a point where their legs are tired and heavy. Strangely, everyone is smiling. Perhaps, after making difficult faces, they are now preparing bright smiles for friends waiting at the cheering zone.
