Sports & outdoor events

This fabulous run represents, perhaps, the premier annual sporting event in Boston City. The marathon has been a tradition since 1897, and has been held, every year, on the 3rd Monday of April, since then. The Boston Marathon is one of the oldest marathons in the world and has been ranked one of the best-known road racing events, worldwide.

 

The course of the marathon is considered to be one of the most difficult marathon courses, due to the Newton hills that culminate in Heartbreak Hill near Boston College, which make the race quite challenging.

 

The official starting point is in Hopkinton, MA, the run finishing in Boston, at Copley Square, alongside the Boston Public Library. Every year, thousands of both amateur and professional runners are attracted to Boston by this fabulous event, drawn from all over the world and across the country.
