From Google Maps Mania

Brian Timoney has created an interactive Google Map for the upcoming New York City Marathon which is being held on November 6th. The map allows you to toggle options such as race route, start/finish points, mile markers (kilometre markers for the Canadians!), toilets and road closures. Brian cites his reasons for adding the portable toilet locations:

“…In 1998 I was running the Philadelphia Marathon and around Mile #9 I really wanted to know where the portable toilets were. Sure enough, for the next 3.5 miles I was in a state of bewilderment and increasing discomfort before finding solace and comfort in the facilities of Fairmount Park… So, hell yeah, the bathrooms are posted on this map!”

A little late for the race this year.

walk.jog.run is one of the many google maps that are out there (more appear to be coming). This mapping tool shows an overview of the U.S. with markers or recorded routes.

On the site you can look for routes that others have recorded with the search function by saved route name or zip code. According to the site there have been over 1300 routes added to the site since July 2005. Check it out.
