Awards
Of course, there's a medal! Every registered participant will receive a medal. Medals will be shipped or hand delivered the week of March 18, 2024. (Mainly because Tonya will be in Tokyo earning her 5th star.) Keep an eye out for the upcoming medal reveal.
A little about Tonya
Tonya's running journey has been phenomenal. Her very first in-person marathon was the London Marathon in April 2023. Since then she has also completed the Berlin, Chicago, and NYC Marathons - all world marathon majors. She is running the Tokyo Marathon in March, so Boston will be her crowning star - completing all six World Marathon Majors in 12 months. TWELVE MONTHS! What makes this even more inspirational is that she is a lupus warrior! Her journey, while tough, has been especially inspiring to watch. We can't wait to watch her make the most famous right and then left in marathoning!
Live in Houston or surrounding areas?
There will be a special 5K for runners and walkers in the Houston area - to be announced at a later date.
Whether in Houston, around your neighborhood, on a treadmill, or in your local park, we look forward to seeing and hearing about your runs. Tag Tonya on IG @tonyaddbradley and use hashtags #TonyaTakesBoston #RoadtoBoston2024.
