Spectators cheer on marathon runners at Mile 21.听
Every year, thousands take on the Boston Marathon route, not only to run the grueling course but to do so in the name of goodwill. Runners don a bib, write their names on their shirts or arms, and race for more than just pride: they fundraise for causes close to their hearts.
This year, the 10th anniversary of the Marathon bombing, as the runners pass Mile 21 to the encouragement of screaming Eagles, more than 30 Boston College community members will do so for charities.听
