    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.

Alberto Salazar. He will also share how modern medical science and technology are fundamentally changing the way we think about death. I highly recommend it to runners and anyone interested in running. The narrative is framed in the 14 minutes in which Salazar was clinically dead after his shocking heart attack in Overall, it was an enjoyable book. But miraculously, Salazar was back at the Nike campus coaching his runners just nine days later. I would encourage any runner to read this book Talking points include: - Fidel Castro really! His life or should I say death story itself is quite fascinating in its own right, and the mere telling of it simply with the facts would have been engaging enough. Lists with This Book. Get A Copy. As his running career wound down, he gained employment with Nike, the renowned athletic company, which had been his sponsor. But that's another story. Read in less than 24 hours.
