The Race
The Boston Marathon is one of the most prestigious marathons in the world and a cornerstone of the Abbott World Marathon Majors. Established in 1897, it’s the oldest annual marathon and attracts elite runners and dedicated amateurs from across the globe. The iconic course starts in Hopkinton and takes you through picturesque New England towns before culminating in the heart of Boston. Known for its challenging terrain and legendary Heartbreak Hill, the Boston Marathon is a true test of endurance and determination.
The Location
Boston is a city steeped in history and culture, often referred to as the "Cradle of Liberty." From the historic Freedom Trail to the vibrant neighborhoods of Back Bay and Beacon Hill, Boston offers a mix of American history, modern charm, and world-class dining. The marathon itself is a celebration, with thousands of spectators lining the course, creating an electric atmosphere.

Testimonials
What Our Customers Say About Us
"Running the Boston Marathon had always been a dream, and Race Beyond made it a reality. Boston hotels were completely sold out. Their team arranged everything—my accommodation near the finish line, transportation, and even got me to the start line. Their expertise made the entire experience smooth and stress-free."
Nora Louisa
Boston Marathon
"Race Beyond made my London Marathon experience seamless and unforgettable. From securing a centrally located hotel near the finish line to planning a stress-free itinerary, everything was perfectly handled. They went above and beyond bringing my family around the course to cheer me on."
Molly Andrews
