The Poco Loco Boston Course just happens to be exactly 13.1 miles in length: a perfect half marathon distance. The course gives anyone who has the time a great tour of Boston, without having to dodge traffic in and around the heart of the city.
From this course along the Mighty Charles you’ll be able to see the famous schools of Harvard and MIT, the Hancock Tower and Prudential Center where the Boston Marathon finishes; the Citgo sign in Kenmore Square near Friendly Fenway, the gold leaf dome of the Massachusetts State house on Beacon Hill, and many other landmarks and sights that will give you a lasting impression of my hometown.
Today I’ll given you an audio tour of the Poco Loco Boston Course, and in the next episode of Phedippidations I’ll introduce you to a great group of runners; some that you’ve already met, heard of and from, as well as others who you’ll get to know.
This is the crazy little run with friends and fellow runners who will come to Boston on April 30th
