Heritage
The world's oldest annual marathon, contested every Patriots' Day since 1897 from Hopkinton to Boylston Street. Boston is the only World Marathon Major you must qualify to enter, and its net-downhill, point-to-point course means even record-shattering winning times cannot be ratified as world records.
