Marathon Monday

Marathon Monday Baby! It's time to celebrate the honored tradition of watching the Red Sox, cheering on the runners and drinking too much. 

Begun in 1897, the Boston Marathon is the world's oldest annual marathon, and ranks as one of the world's best-known road racing events. Runners and spectators come from all over the world to witness this incredible race and enjoy Patriot's Day

Now, there are multiple areas to watch the race but the best locations are Fenway/Kenmore and Back Bay. There will be decent fun loving crowds in the area because of the finish line & Red Sox game. A heads up-the Ts will be packed and parking will be impossible so plan accordingly. 

If you want to grab a drink, try to find a bar that has the 26.2 Sam, in honor of the race. Most of the bars that have it are located in Boston and you can check out the full list here

So enjoy the day, have some fun & be safe!
