I'm running Boston for the first time in a few weeks. It seems like the only way to get to the start is on the buses. There's also one mention of getting dropped off on South street by car but that's like two and a half miles from the start. Is there no way for me to just get dropped off about an hour before the start somewhat close to the start?
don't fret it
roads closed
ride the bus
and walk the 800m from the school to the start
Hopkinson is a small town that's jammed with people. The roads will be blocked/closed. I don't think there would be a way to get dropped off close.
Take the bus. It's not that bad. Bring extra clothes, a poncho and/or umbrella you can throw away, your food and just get through it. Good luck!
10-timer here. Take it from a guy who loves to find a more convenient work-around and avoid the hoardes: just take the bus, it works well. Timing it right so you don't have to wait around forever is a little tougher.
Take the bus-- super easy. I was surprised how simple they make it.
Chill those mofos. Don't worry man. It's all good. Boston org is the best. The only thing you need to do is evacuate the bladder before you get on the bus just in case there is traffic. They do a good job of getting you there with plenty of time to spare. You'll be bored waiting for the start.
Have a great race!
