Laura Thweatt ready to go the distance in marathon debut

How to watch

The 2015 New York City Marathon will be televised live on ESPN2 from 7 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. MT Sunday. The race will also be live on abc7NY.com and via the WatchABC app, as well as via WatchESPN on computers, tablets, smartphones and Amazon Fire.

Darting off a well-worn starting line marked out on the bike path next to the Flatirons Golf Course on a recent Friday morning, Laura Thweatt was right in the middle of a dozen of her Boulder Track Club teammates, fast guys and women, heading off for a 3,000-meter all-out time trial.
