[upbeat music] Welcome to the Allie on the Run show. I'm your host, Allie Feller, and it's time. Everything you need to know about the 2026 Boston Marathon. I've been doing these episodes for the past few years, and it is a marathon episode. Several hours packed with information to take you from your home, to the expo, to the start line, and to the finish line, with, of course, plenty of detours along the way. We love a scenic route. The Boston Marathon is always on the third Monday of April. This year, that means runners will be starting their 26.2-mile journey to that Boylston Street finish line on Monday, April 20th. It is the 130th running of the Boston Marathon presented by Bank of America. Throughout this episode, you'll be hearing from a range of Boston Marathon insiders and experts to answer every question you may have about this iconic race. It is a big, exhaustive labor of love, this episode, and I love getting to bring it to you as you spend some time luxuriating in your taper. I hope you're luxuriating. You doing okay, by the way? Yeah. No, you totally are. You've got this. Take a deep breath. If you're running this year's race, we're going to tell you all about the course, the start village, whether you might be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the pros at the start line, and what to expect after you cross the finish, which, great news,
