Jag mailade NYRR och frågade om policy för 2015 vad gäller kvalgränser eftersom jag klarat kvalgränsen på halvmaraton i år, här är svaret:
"Please understand that the policy is not yet official and may change by the time the marathon application opens in January. Only NYRR races (marathon and Half marathon distances) provided immediately guaranteed entry based upon the Time Qualifying Standards. If you ran a TQ in a NON NYRR race, you were placed in a TQ drawing. (Spaces were limited ), If you were not accepted in this drawing you were placed in the general drawing for a spot.
Below is the 2015 TQ policy
The time-standard qualifying window is January 1-December 31, 2014. The total number of time-qualifier spots is to be determined. All runners who qualify in an NYRR race (2014 Manhattan Half-Marathon, NYC Half 2014, 2014 More Magazine/Fitness Magazine Women’s Half Marathon, 2014 Brooklyn Half, 2014 Grete’s Great Gallop, 2014 Staten Island Half-Marathon, 2014 ING New York City Marathon) will be eligible for guaranteed entry. The remaining time-qualifier spots will be filled by a special drawing, and those applicants who are not selected will be entered into the general non-guaranteed entry drawing. Those who meet the time standard in a non-NYRR race will be required to complete the non-guaranteed-entry application and submit the time and the name of the race (results must be verifiable online).
The time-standard qualifying window for the 2015 TCS New York City Marathon is January 1-December 31, 2014; the time-qualifying standards for runners are the same as for the 2014 race. The time-qualifying standards are as follows (runners only); all times run must be at least as fast as the posted time."
