It's not such a short window. It's a good 3-4 hours, and on a very busy timing as well.

Every major city has a marathon.
We live in NYC, we dont own it.

This doesn't mean that we're not allowed to cross the marathon. Sometimes it's unavoidable.
We don't own NYC, but we do pay a crazy amount of taxes. So I will cross Bedford if I need to.

Would it bother you if someone blocks the street for a hachnasas Sefer Torah and a bunch of people come to disturb it because they see no reason the street should be closed?
You can be upset at the situation, and have empathy! |
Really now. Streets are blocked off for almost half of a day when there's hachnoses sefer torah?! There's one in my area min about once in 6 weeks. And there isn't such a mob blocking it off for that long. Maybe it's about time to change the marathon route.
Can't open video. But what's wrong with people running along while trying to cross?

Sure, if you can cross the way those people in the video are crossing, that makes sense.
But if you are going to cross in a way which would either cause you to be hit by a runner or stop them, you're wrong.

Most of us are pretty experienced in crossing the marathon by now.
Police officers even help people across.

When the running gets heavy, it's impossible to cross without running along with the runners. So I assume whoevers crossing at that point is running.
