2010 Brooklyn Half-Marathon - Race Results

Brooklyn Half-Marathon race results have been posted. As usual, you can enter a runner's number or name to search for results, or view overall results, results by gender or age group, etc.

It was a muggy day out there today; good thing it wasn't too hot, and that the overcast skies kept the temperature down in the early part of the race. Many runners were enjoying Coney Island at the finish, taking in a hot dog at Nathan's or a swim in the Atlantic Ocean!
