Boston Marathon – 17 de Abril de 2023

Deixar um comentário

A Maratona de Boston é uma das mais antigas e prestigiadas maratonas do mundo, realizada anualmente na cidade de Boston, Massachusetts. A primeira edição da corrida aconteceu em 1897 e desde então se tornou uma das maratonas mais cobiçadas por corredores de todo o mundo.

A maratona de Boston acontece no mês de abril e o percurso de 42,195 km começa na cidade de Hopkinton e termina no centro de Boston, no bairro de Back Bay. O percurso é considerado um dos mais difíceis entre as maratonas importantes devido às várias colinas e ao clima instável da região, que pode variar de muito frio a muito quente em questão de horas.

Para se qualificar para a Maratona de Boston, os corredores devem atender a critérios de tempo determinados pela organização da corrida, que variam de acordo com a idade e o gênero dos corredores. A maratona é conhecida por sua atmosfera festiva e pelo apoio dos moradores locais ao longo do percurso.

Além da maratona principal, há outras corridas que acontecem durante o fim de semana da Maratona de Boston, incluindo uma meia maratona e uma corrida de 5 km.
