Anger is rising over Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s decision to proceed with the New York City marathon in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. Now, some residents are aiming their ire toward the runners who participate in the race:

some of them runners getting beat up in BK, watch.

A marathon solution that works for everyone: New Yorkers line the streets to boo and throw garbage at the runners.

I’d trip the runners running in the marathon but the path train isn’t working.

Anyone who is pissed about the marathon taking place Sunday should go there and boo the runners.

Hope that all the marathon generators explode and kill some marathon runners. twitter.com/Doctor_Boris/s…

@beebea Can someone explain why people are threatening to throw things at the runners?

— Melissa Bernardo (@mrbplus) November 2, 2012

Just read that there’s a radio campaign to trip marathon runners. Guys, just don’t run in this thing.

Worrisome: threats to @ingnycmarathon runners that I’m reading on Facebook; calls to trip marathoners or throw things at them on Sunday

— Nicole Lyn Pesce (@PesceNic) November 2, 2012

Mark my words: marathon runners are going to get booed, people are going to throw shit at them, and NYers are going to disrupt the race.

— MarcusG (@widestance) November 2, 2012

We’re sure many of these are empty threats. Nonetheless, this is worrisome. Runners, stay alert.
