  • Updated 2019 Completemedia
    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.

  • About Finish Line
    “It’s a story with particular heft for Bostonians, of course. But it’s also a story with universal appeal, about the strength of the human spirit.” – The Boston Globe ABOUT FINISH LINE From March 15-26, 2017, the world premiere of Finish Line: A Documentary Play About the 2013 Boston Marathon was presented by the Boch Center in association with Boston Theater Company at the Boch Center Shubert Theatre. Finish Line brings a story of recovery, resilience, and determination center stage. Through a transcript created verbatim from dozens of interviews, Finish Line uses powerful firsthand accounts to show how a community came together to heal and grow stronger in the wake of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings. It does not focus on the act of terror itself but rather on the people whose lives were impacted. Directed and co-created by Joey Frangieh and co-created by Lisa Rafferty, the documentary style production features interviews from survivors, runners, doctors, police officers, spectators, journalists, clergy, and students. These include Liz Norden, mother of two sons injured in the bombings, news anchor Maria Stephanos, Massachusetts General Hospital trauma surgeon Dr. David R. King, Boston Police Commissioner William Evans, 1976 Marathon winner Jack Fultz, and Boston Globe photographer John Tlumacki, among many others. A team began interviews for Finish Line in March 2015. In total, 94 individuals were interviewed for the project. After holding seven workshops, preview performances of Finish Line were presented in a 50 seat conference room in April 2016 and received an overwhelming response from audiences. Over the next year, Boston Theater Company and the Boch Center worked together to conduct more interviews, make changes to the script, hold auditions, design a set, and much more that led to the world premiere of Finish Line at the 1,500 seat Shubert Theatre in March 2017.
