Honoring Lives Lost During the 25th Anniversary of 9/11

Every running of the New York City Marathon is special, but this year’s race carries extra significance for a couple of reasons: It marks the 50th anniversary of the iconic 5-boro course, and it coincides with the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Among those lining up on November 1 will be Dennis Levasseur and Hanna Born, two runners whose lives were deeply affected by the events of that day.
