The Boston Marathon is run each year on the third Monday of April – Patriots’ Day in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. From a field of 15 entrants and 10 finishers in the inaugural run, the race has grown to an international sporting event with 30,000 official entrants in this year’s race.

Boston is different than many other marathons as participants must qualify for entry by meeting stringent qualifying times before they can register.

The race is run on a point-to-point course through eight cities and towns, and the 26.2-mile course has remained essentially unchanged over the years. In 2016, the race will be held on April 18.
