iHeartMedia New York sports anchor Len Berman, currently heard from 6-10am weekdays on 710 WOR's Len Berman and Michael Riedel in the Morning, will anchor the station's live coverage of the 53rd TCS New York City Marathon on Sunday, November 3. This first-ever radio broadcast of the iconic New York City event will be heard from 8am-12pm on 710 WOR-AM, Q104.3HD2, on the iHeartRadio app and at 710wor.com.

"When iHeartMedia New York partnered with the New York Road Runners (NYRR) to produce this inaugural radio broadcast of the marathon, it was a no-brainer to put Len at the helm of the broadcast," said WOR Program Director Tom Cuddy. "His association with New York sports, during his more than 50-year television career, and his 'second life' as co-host of the WOR morning show since 2015, ensure that Len will make this a can't-miss broadcast."

"I'm honored to be hosting WOR's maiden voyage with the TCS New York City Marathon," added Berman. "I've hosted TV coverage of the event many times and it's consistently one of the best days of the year in the city. We look forward to conveying that same message to our listeners."

Among those running in this year's TCS New York City Marathon will be Garrett Vogel from Elvis Duran and the Z100 Morning Show.
