The Boston Marathon brings runners here from all 50 states, and over 100 countries around the world. But for other participants, the marathon route runs right through their backyards. The Frame’s Mackenzie Wright spent some time with a number of 2024 marathon runners who live right here in Framingham. Some of them grew up watching this historic race pass right through our community on route 135, while others live literally steps away from the 26.2 mile trek. They all agree that completing the Boston Marathon is truly an experience of a lifetime!
