Before the race, the Marathon Maniac and Half Fanatic running family takes a moment to capture a ‘Family Photo.’ This tradition, observed at races across the country, was honored before the Boston Marathon in Boston, MA on April 19, 2026. The photograph serves not only as a keepsake but also reflects the camaraderie and spirit shared among participants. The group shot embodies their dedication to running and the community they have built through various events. Photo Credit goes to Marathon Maniacs.
