BOSTON — The 2021 Boston Marathon was Monday morning, with four runners from Maple Grove making their 26.2-mile journey from Hopkinton to the famed Boylston Street finish line in Boston. The 2021 Boston Marathon for the first time was held in the fall, pushed back six months from its traditional April date due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 Boston Marathon was postponed before being canceled, the first time the race didn't take place in its 124-year history (though there was a virtual event.) 4 Maple Grove Runners To Race In 125th Boston Marathon On Monday Sign up for one of Patch's free local daily newsletters to get the latest about what's happening in your city or town.
