Celebrate an unforgettable marathon with this handcrafted New York City Marathon wooden route map. Precision laser-cut and layered in wood, this premium wall art captures the full 42.195 km course as it weaves through all five boroughs of New York City — transformed into a lasting keepsake of race day.
Designed in A3 portrait format for clarity and balance, the marathon title is cut as NYC Marathon, ensuring strong visual impact without compromising the vertical layout. This format allows the route, bridges, and neighbourhoods to remain clearly defined.
Perfect for
- New York City Marathon finishers and first-time marathoners
- Meaningful gifts from partners, friends, or family
- Personal bests, milestone races, and bucket-list achievements
- Runners building a World Marathon Majors collection
Personalisation & engraving
Each map includes a laser-cut wooden medal, engraved with the runner’s name, bib number, finish time, and marathon name.
The event name also appears as a separate cut wooden layer on the map as NYC Marathon, positioned to suit the A3 portrait layout. The start and finish are highlighted using a wooden pin engraved with a flag.
An optional personal message, motivation quote, or dedication can also be engraved. Popular examples include:
- “You can do hard things.”
- “First Marathon — NYC”
- “Five boroughs. One finish line.”
Meaningful locations — such as a home, hotel, or special landmark — can also be added on request.
Main locations featured on the map
Key locations along the route are engraved directly onto the map, including:
- Staten Island start
