NORWICH – On Sunday, Norwich attorney Diane DiStefano completed 40th annual New York City Marathon alongside 45,000 other runners.

A crowd of more than two million people cheered the athletes as they ran the 26.2-mile marathon through each of the city’s five boroughs.

DiStefano completed the race in 4 hours, 31 minutes and 4 seconds, well under her aim of five hours. “I had the high mark of being able to do it in four and a half hours so this was a great effort for me personally,” she said.
