Great history and overview of Boston Marathon. Filled with tidbits and personality and pointers in how to tackle/survive Boston! Well done

Not bad for someone who really enjoys the Boston Marathon. If you've never run the race you will likely be completely lost in this book. The book details every inch of the course, every turn, and goes through the illustrious history of the race.

This book is thoroughly entertaining, informative, well written and contains a wealth of useful information about the Boston Marathon course towns and influential people. Updated to include a memorial section on the 2013 bombings, the memorial is entirely appropriate and fits with the rest of the book really well.
