Personal
The NYRR holds over fifty races yearly, and though no longer a marathoner, Wittenberg participates in several of these races. In 2006 she competed in 18 races, and in 2007, she ran 20. Despite her busy schedule, she often runs and cross-trains in Central Park, and starts the day of the New York Marathon with a pre-dawn run.
Wittenberg lives in the Upper East Side of New York City, and is married with two sons. Her family attends St. Ignatius Loyola.
