What more can we say that hasn’t already been said about the Boston Marathon? This race weekend is a lifetime goal for many runners, rewarding many months or years of work to achieve a coveted BQ. And when an entire city the size of Boston caters to celebrating your 26.2 miles, you know it’s a special event.

Runners recommend making the most out of every part of the Boston Marathon weekend. Check-out a Red Sox game at Fenway Park, get a delicious pre-race meal in the North End, and visit one of the many pop-up shops and running talks happening around the city. The course is well-marked as you run past each of the towns leading you into Boston. There’s also a ton to look forward to during the race, as each neighborhood outfit puts on their best Marathon Monday party and cheer station, including the deafening crowds as you finish on Boylston.

And, what you don’t see is the amazing network of logistics and security there to support you every step of the way. The race management team (DMSE Sports) is absolutely world-class, and they support the racing community by sharing their knowledge, insight, and advice with other races. The Boston Marathon is truly a special race and well-deserving of a place on The BibRave 100.
