The
eventÛªs half marathon and 5-mile races are set for Sunday, May 24, and
start at the Seaport World Trade Center in downtown Boston. This is the 11th
year for the annual charity event, created as a tribute to Massachusetts law
enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.
ÛÏRegistrations
are running far ahead of last yearÛªs pace at this time ÛÒ we are
half full and weÛªre just getting into February,Û said Race Director
Steve Balfour. ÛÏWe know we will need to close down registration at some
point, so we encourage everyone who wants to take part to register online soon before we sell out.Û
Race
organizers are planning for a field size of approximately 10,000. Last year,
9,504 runners crossed the finish line in the two races.
Both races
feature loop courses that start at the Seaport World Trade Center and wind through historic downtown
Boston, with the half marathon crossing over the Charles River along Memorial
Drive in Cambridge before looping back.

BostonÛªs Run to Remember is produced by a handful of police

the race. Proceeds benefit the community and childrenÛªs programs of the Boston Police RunnerÛªs Club. For those who cannot run this year
but want to take part, donations may be made to BostonÛªs Run to Remember
and sent to P.O. Box 760670, Melrose, MA 02176.
