Headed to pick-up your NYC Half-Marathon packet at NIKETOWN? Don’t forget to allot a little extra time to enjoy the Runner’s Experience presented by Nike. Be sure not to miss the following:

PACE BRACELETS: These aren’t your run-of-the-mill pace bracelets. Unlike those given out at other races, the customized NYC Half-Marathon pace bracelets take into consideration hills for increased pace accuracy. Furthermore, after creating a pace bracelet to pinpoint their goal time, runners can visit a website (that takes into account their estimated time) to direct friends and family to a specific location at a specific time so they can cheer them on!

TEE SHIRT CUSTOMIZATION: Have the whole city of New York cheering for you with your customized tee! Choose your own inspirational phrase, nickname, time or whatever else you like to have printed on your Nike apparel. Just select the gear you want to wear on race day, show your receipt and place your order. The heat transfer customization will be done in minutes!

There’s much more to see and do at the Runner’s Experience, so don’t just grab you packet and run! Stop by NIKETOWN NYC (6 East 57th Street, between Fifth and Madison Avenues) during the following hours (also the same dates and times for packet pick-up):
