In the same medical tent where the athletes seek post-race refuge for pulled muscles, dehydration and more, they will have to prove they are vaccinated or pass a COVID-19 test.
Painter Will Belezos, of Holbrook, Mass., left, uses a stencil, Wednesday, Oct 6, 2021, while working to complete the start line for the 125th edition of the Boston Marathon, in Hopkinton, Mass. The race is to be run on Monday, Oct. 11. No, not in Hopkinton, where the Boston Marathon field crosses the starting line painted across Main Street, headed for the Back Bay. But 26.
In addition to the vaccine verification, they will be required to wear masks indoors in Boston and on the buses out to the Hopkinton start. When they get there, there will be no crowded athlete's village where they can grab a granola bar and stretch while waiting to start; they have been instructed to get off the bus and go, with electronic chips recording their start time.
The crowds in the eight cities and towns along the course also are expected to be smaller as fans also attempt to social distance. And Wellesley College students have been told to skip the traditional good luck kisses for the runners as they pass the school, near the halfway mark.The quick shuffle at the start will spare the runners the long wait — often hours of standing around — before they are herded into corrals for their starting wave to be called.
