Boston is just 10 Weeks Out and 100 are running for a little eight year-old boy

The 122nd Annual Boston Marathon is just 10 weeks from today. In the pack will be Jimmy Guy of Salem who will be raising money for the Martin Richard Foundation. Guy has run two New York City Marathons for this charity and this will be his first Boston. “My goal is to raise eight thousand dollars for MRF (there is a team of 100). It means so much to run for this cause. It adds more purpose to my running,” says Guy. This year marks the fifth anniversary of the tragic event that occurred in 2013, taking the life of an innocent little boy as he stood with his family eating ice cream near the finish line.
