Just got back into running a recently and i would like to qualify for NYC. There is one qualifying method that I don’t completely understand:
“A limited number of time-qualifier spots will be available to runners who meet the time standards in a non-NYRR race; these spots will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis, with details available after December 31, 2017.â€
So how many of these spots are available? What are my chances of getting one? So faster times have a better chance of being accepted?
