The NYRR Hall of Fame awards are one of my favorite parts of the New York Marathon week. Jeff Benjamin, out of respect for the 50th anniversary of the NYC Marathon, put this list of 12 moments in the NYC Marathon Rewind. This video salutes the late Tom Fleming, and includes Margot Fleming, his daughter, Bill Rodgers, his friend and competitor. I have to admit that Margot’s words teared me up.

We hope you take the time to learn about Tom Fleming’s contributions to the sport. He was a very special character, coach, competitor and father.
