Summary "For this revised and updated edition, author and lifetime Bostonian Michael Connelly will conduct interviews with runners of the 2013 Marathon and those preparing to run in 2014 - which will prove to be the Marathon's most historic and highly attended. While still containing the wonderful trivia, history, and traditions from the original 26 Miles to Boston, this updated edition widens the POV, weaving in the shocking events surrounding the 2013 race, the aftermath, and Boston's resilience and commitment to make the 2014 race something to celebrate for the ages. With a new foreword by four-time Boston Marathon winner Bill Rodgers"-- Provided by publisher.
