BOSTON — The 2021 Boston Marathon is underway, which means runners from New Hampshire are making their 26.2-mile journey from Hopkinton to the famed Boylston Street finish line in Boston. To track a particular runner, go to the Boston Athletic Association's tracker. You can search participants via electronic chips if you have their bib number, name or city/town they are from. This year has staggered start times; everyone will have left the start line by 11 a.m. Here are the start times for the 2021 Boston Marathon: Men's wheelchair: 8:02 a.m.Women's wheelchair: 8:05 a.m.Handcycles and duos: 8:30 a.m.Professional men: 8:37 a.m.Professional women: 8:45 a.m.Para athletics division: 8:50 .am.Rollings start begins: 9 a.m.Rolling start ends: 11:30 a.m. The 2021 Boston Marathon for the first time is taking place 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.) The Marathon returns with a reduced field of fewer than 20,000 runners — the usual amount is over 30,000. Those running won't need to wear masks on the course, but they will if they enter any medical tents or other facilities; Boston has an indoor mask mandate in effect. Runners must be vaccinated or have a recent negative COVID-19 test. There will be live national coverage on NBC. People watching outside the United States can find who is carrying the race here.
