Jordan Weiss, SOM Class of 2030, and Dorothy Liu, SOM Class of 2027, Were Among Participants Who Took Part in the World's Largest Marathon

More than 60,000 runners representing more than 140 countries filled the streets of New York City for the 2026 TCS New York City Marathon on November 1, making it the largest marathon in the event's history with a record number of nearly 60,000 finishers. Among them were New York Medical College students Jordan Weiss, SOM Class of 2030, and Dorothy Liu, SOM Class of 2027, who joined athletes, recreational runners, and charity participants in tackling the iconic 26.2-mile course through all five boroughs. Balancing the demands of medical education with rigorous training, both students embraced the challenge as a testament to perseverance, discipline, and a commitment to health and wellness beyond the classroom.
