New York Road Runners Site
New York Road Runners, the premier running organization in the U.S. and host of the renowned ING New York City Marathon, sought to upgrade their legacy website application to one capable of managing the substantial traffic of over 50,000 hits during events. The redesign introduced several runner-centric enhancements and new features, including detailed information on upcoming races, race recaps, a comprehensive race calendar, coaching and training programs, fitness classes, donation and fundraising options, and a profile widget. This upgrade ensured the website could effectively support the organization’s growing needs and enhance the overall user experience for runners and supporters alike.
