Caroline Wozniacki will run for New York Marathon in November instead of sitting at home and crying about the called-off wedding to Rory McIlroy. But Rory McIlroy break up isn’t the only reason why Caroline Wozniacki is running the New York Marathon. She is running with the Boston Marathon winner Meb Keflezighi to raise money for ‘Team For Kids’. Also, if she completes the race, she will become of the few professional athletes, who has run the New York Marathon at their professional peak.
