New York City Marathon officials say a 41-year-old man who collapsed during the race has died -- making him the third fatality since the Nov. 2 race.
Race organizer New York Road Runners says the man died Thursday in a New York City hospital. The group did not identify the man.
This is the third death connected to the Nov. 2 marathon.
A 58-year-old Brazilian man died of a heart attack shortly after crossing the finish line. Another man from Staten Island died several hours later.
At least two other competitors became ill during the 26.2-mile run and had to be hospitalized. More than 38,000 runners took part.
