Prv\u00fd Newyorsk\u00fd marat\u00f3n sa uskuto\u010dnil v roku 1970. Organiz\u00e1torom s\u00fa\u0165a\u017ee bol p\u00e1n Vince Chiappetta. S\u00fa\u0165a\u017e sa v tom \u010dase uskuto\u010dnila v Central Parku, pri\u010dom sa ho z\u00fa\u010dastnilo 127 be\u017ecov, z ktor\u00fdch sa do cie\u013ea dostalo len 55 mu\u017eov. Jedin\u00e1 \u017eensk\u00e1 z\u00e1stupky\u0148a cie\u013e neuvidela. V\u00ed\u0165azi boli odmenen\u00ed \u201e\u00fa\u017easnou\u201c cenou \u2013 dostali lacn\u00e9 hodinky a baseballov\u00e9 a bowlingov\u00e9 trofeje. Prv\u00fd ro\u010dn\u00edk v\u0161ak priniesol aj \u010fal\u0161ie zauj\u00edmavosti \u2013 \u0161tartovn\u00fd poplatok bol 1 dol\u00e1r a celkov\u00fd rozpo\u010det marat\u00f3nu nepresiahol 1000 dol\u00e1rov. Odvtedy v\u0161ak pretieklo v rieke Hudson ve\u013ea vody a mnoh\u00e9 veci sa zmenili \u2013 povedomie marat\u00f3nu sa v\u00fdrazne zv\u00fd\u0161ilo. Z malej lok\u00e1lnej udalosti sa stal zn\u00e1my medzin\u00e1rodn\u00fd \u0161portov\u00fd event. Newyorsk\u00fd marat\u00f3n dnes patr\u00ed k najpopul\u00e1rnej\u0161\u00edm svetov\u00fdm udalostiam, ke\u010f\u017ee jeho \u010daro vyh\u013ead\u00e1va viac ako 55 000 \u00fa\u010dastn\u00edkov.<\/p>\n

Pre be\u017ecov je za\u010diatok marat\u00f3nu strach vzbudzuj\u00faci z\u00e1\u017eitok. Zvy\u010dajne vst\u00e1vaj\u00fa u\u017e o piatej r\u00e1no do atmosf\u00e9ry plnej nap\u00e4tia, aby stihli autobus na Staten Island, kde je \u0161tart marat\u00f3nu. Ke\u010f sa tam kone\u010dne dostan\u00fa, musia sa zoradi\u0165 na z\u00e1klade farebn\u00fdch k\u00f3dov jednotliv\u00fdch \u0161tartov\u00fdch \u010dasov. Zhroma\u017edisko sa nach\u00e1dza hne\u010f ved\u013ea Fort Wadsworth, \u010do je p\u00f4vodn\u00e1 vojensk\u00e1 z\u00e1klad\u0148a. Niektor\u00e9 skupinky vyr\u00e1\u017eaj\u00fa a\u017e o 11:30, \u010do znamen\u00e1, \u017ee \u010das sa medzi pr\u00edchodom na Staten Island a \u0161tartom marat\u00f3nu musia nejako vyplni\u0165. Be\u017eci pr\u00edli\u0161 nemiluj\u00fa \u201ehluch\u00fd \u010das\u201c, ktor\u00fd ich del\u00ed od \u010dasu, kedy vybehn\u00fa kone\u010dne na tra\u0165. Ve\u010f si len predstavte situ\u00e1ciu, ke\u010f ste u\u017e od skor\u00e9ho r\u00e1na pln\u00fd motiv\u00e1cie a odhodlania, no vybrat\u00e9 vy\u0161\u0161ie \u0161tartov\u00e9 \u010d\u00edslo znamen\u00e1, \u017ee na \u0161tart si po\u010dk\u00e1te dobr\u00fdch \u0161es\u0165 hod\u00edn.<\/p>\n
Po vypo\u010dut\u00ed americkej hymny a dvoch v\u00fdstrelov z dela Howitzer sa m\u00f4\u017ee za\u010da\u0165 be\u017ea\u0165. Za\u010d\u00edna sa dobrodru\u017estvo, ktor\u00e9 \u00fa\u010dastn\u00edkov privedie cez most Verrazano Narrows. Hne\u010f, ako sa dostan\u00fa po Brooklyn, m\u00f4\u017eu si dos\u00fdta vychutna\u0165 ov\u00e1cie div\u00e1kov a pon\u00fakan\u00e9 sladkosti, ovocie, ale aj objatia.<\/p>\n

Atmosf\u00e9ra marat\u00f3nu v New Yorku miestami pripom\u00edna najv\u00e4\u010d\u0161iu pouli\u010dn\u00fa p\u00e1rty na svete. Na trase je zoraden\u00fdch viac ako 130 hudobn\u00fdch skup\u00edn s ponukou najrozli\u010dnej\u0161\u00edch hudobn\u00fdch \u0161t\u00fdlov \u2013 od heavy metalu a\u017e po gospel. Priemerne na m\u00ed\u013eu sa nach\u00e1dza asi p\u00e4\u0165 skup\u00edn. A napriek relat\u00edvnej konzervat\u00edvnosti be\u017ecov oble\u010den\u00fdch v pekn\u00fdch dresoch si div\u00e1ci z\u00e1bavu dostato\u010dne u\u017e\u00edvaj\u00fa. Slov\u00e1 o konzervat\u00edvnom pr\u00edstupe nie je treba bra\u0165 doslovne – medzi s\u00fa\u0165a\u017eiacimi uvid\u00edte aj t\u00fdpkov v kost\u00fdmoch Dartha Vadera, ako aj v extravagantn\u00fdch modeloch \u017eralokov, slaniny, princeznej, \u010di jednoducho v biznis looku (obleky a kravata). D\u00e1 sa vidie\u0165 aj zop\u00e1r sporo odet\u00fdch odv\u00e1\u017elivcov, ktor\u00ed sa predv\u00e1dzaj\u00fa len v spodnej bielizni, \u010di dokonca p\u00e1pe\u017ea, ktor\u00fd po\u010das behu rozd\u00e1val po\u017eehnania.<\/p>\n
Trasa marat\u00f3nu je aj pod\u013ea sk\u00fasen\u00fdch be\u017ecov n\u00e1ro\u010dnej\u0161ia, ako by sa na prv\u00fd pohla\u010f mohlo zda\u0165. Vraj nikto na NY City Marathon nedosiahne osobn\u00fd rekord, lebo sa be\u017e\u00ed aj v kopcovitom ter\u00e9ne. Jedn\u00fdm z kopcov je Queensboro Bridge, ktor\u00fd \u010dak\u00e1 na be\u017ecov nie\u010do za polovicou marat\u00f3nu. Beh na tejto \u010dasti trate \u010dasto sprev\u00e1dza pocit nekone\u010dnej cesty, ale n\u00e1mahu vynahr\u00e1dza poh\u013ead na ohromuj\u00faci Manhattan.<\/p>\n
