B.A.A. Races

The Boston Marathon is the world’s oldest annual marathon and ranks as one of the world’s most prestigious road racing events.

A portion of the Half Marathon's entry fees has been directed towards the Emerald Necklace Conservancy, a non-profit organization working to restore, preserve, maintain and promote this historic park system.

The B.A.A. 5K serves as the first race of the B.A.A. Distance Medley, a three race series that also includes June's B.A.A. 10K and October's B.A.A. Half Marathon.

The B.A.A. invites runners to compete in the B.A.A. 10K, which complements the B.A.A. 5K, and the B.A.A. Half Marathon.

The annual Mayor’s Cup Cross Country Races give local runners, especially road racers, perhaps their single cross-country racing opportunity of the year. Proceeds from the event are directed towards the improvement, preservation, and maintenance of the Franklin Park cross country courses.
