Welcome from Twin Cities In Motion! Dear Friends in the Media, On behalf of the Twin Cities In Motion Board of Directors, Staff and Association Volunteers, welcome to the 36th annual Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend! Without you, we could not share this premier weekend of events with the Twin Cities community, the nation, and the world. Thank you for joining us to share the story of running. With a mission to ignite everyone's inner athlete, we are proud to host the region’s signature endurance event and celebrate its 36-year presence in the community. Marathon weekend kicks off on Friday, September 29, when the doors of Saint Paul RiverCentre open for the Health & Fitness Expo. Some 50,000 event participants and other attendees will arrive on Friday and Saturday to pick up their race packets, mingle with fellow runners, listen to expert speakers, and explore the products and services of more than 100 expo exhibitors. Running events get underway on Saturday morning, September 30, with the TC 10K, the TC 5K, presented by Fredrikson & Byron, and the Medtronic TC Family Events, making Saturday “A Day of Fun for the Whole Family.” The day includes the popular Diaper Dash, presented by Pioneer Press, and Toddler Trot, as well as a mascot race featuring TCM’s own Harry and Shelly. The 19th running of the Medtronic TC 10 Mile will kick things off on Sunday morning, October 1, as more than 12,500 registrants take “The Shortcut to the Capitol®.” The event again hosts the USATF Men’s and Women’s 10 Mile Championships and features an Equalizer Bonus of $10,000 for the first runner — male or female — to cross the finish line. Later Sunday morning in the weekend’s signature event, nearly 10,000 runners are set to race from downtown Minneapolis to the state Capitol grounds in St. Paul in the 36th Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon.

    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.
