In the pages to the left are marathons listed on the Boston Athletic Association's Website as Boston Marathon qualifiers. While you're here, be sure to check out the tips below for becoming a serious runner and qualifying for the Boston Marathon yourself (and see my own race results at left). (***Please note that I'm a runner, not a doctor. Always seek advice from a medical professional for a specific problem.***)



Before I start throwing out my two cents on running, I should state that this site by no means offers the final word on the sport.
