rednikki<p>Hey <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Boston" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Boston</span></a> - I have a friend who is looking for a charity to run for (and raise money for) for the 2026 Boston Marathon. Do you have ties with a charity that gets bibs and is recruiting runners? LMK! <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/bostonmarathon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bostonmarathon</span></a></p>

Robin<p>In case you need some inspiration.</p><p>From Allison Wade, author of my favorite weekly newsletter, Fast Women:</p><p>“The oldest woman to finish this year’s [<a href="https://m.ai6yr.org/tags/BostonMarathon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BostonMarathon</span></a>] was Carol Wright, 83, who ran 5:57:02. I had the pleasure of meeting her over the weekend. She didn’t take up running until she was 69, and she thinks that’s helping her body feel good now. If she can record an official finish next year, she will tie the record for oldest woman to officially complete the race.”</p>

Todd NelsonI walked the Freedom Trail in Boston yesterday - the 250th Patriot's Day - during the marathon. The trail is marked with brass markers and a strip of bricks so you don't get lost. I also used the National Parks Service app.<br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/FreedomTrail?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FreedomTrail</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/BostonMarathon?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BostonMarathon</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/NationalParks?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NationalParks</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Boston?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Boston</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/History?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#History</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Histodons?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Histodons</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PatriotsDay?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PatriotsDay</a>

Brian Johnson<p>At events like the Boston Marathon, so much media coverage is devoted to the professionals as they cross the finish line. But if you ask me, the true excitement is watching tens of thousands of runners together at the start. </p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/photography" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>photography</span></a></span> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/AmateurPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AmateurPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Massachusetts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Massachusetts</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/NewEngland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NewEngland</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Hopkinton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hopkinton</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/HopkintonMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HopkintonMA</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BostonMarathon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BostonMarathon</span></a></p>

Somebonnie, aka 6x6pix<p>It would be funny if junk food brands started sponsoring athletes.
