How to watch New York Marathon 2025 live stream online for free

The New York Marathon 2025 live streams close out the marathon major season with debutants Eliud Kipchoge and Sifan Hassan, two of the biggest names in athletics, hitting the streets of the Big Apple. Yet the 26.2 kilometer course around the five boroughs is about more than the big names and celebrity faces, it’s about the thousands of amateur runners competing against the clock and raising money for charities around the world.

Kipchoge completes the set when he takes to the roads of New York for the first time on Sunday. The 40-year-old Kenyan great will claim the seven-star medal by running each of the seven marathon majors in his esteemed career, but will also want to prove his class over what is a stacked men’s elite field. Two-time Olympic champion Kipchoge will line up against Dutch defending champion Abdi Nageeye, plus other Kenyans, and for NYC Marathon winners Evans Chebet and Albert Korir. There is also plenty of interest in Kipchoge’s old track rival Kenenisa Bekele, who is a late entrant, while Paris 2024 bronze medalist Benson Kipruto will also be on the starting line.
