For Brooklynite Lauren Rutkowski, 34, the day of the TCS New York City Marathon is perhaps the most important on the calendar — one she starts early in the morning, carb-loading on bagels near her home in Cobble Hill before hopping the subway to where the action is. But the marketing manager won’t be running the five-borough race. Instead, she’s one of 2 million New Yorkers and out-of-town spectators expected to show up bright and early this Sunday to cheer on a record-breaking 55,000 runners from all over the world, shouting encouragement from behind police barricades.
