Odds of getting into the @LondonMarathon are better than those of getting into @Harvard (though not by much). #Marathonmaddness

If you ran the @LondonMarathon today you can thank/curse the Royals for the extra 1.4 miles. If this reference befuddles, perhaps check out The Road to Sparta for this and other titillating facts about the Marathon. https://t.co/GCY3x9ZV6Q

26.6 miles (42.2 km) is the WRONG distance for a marathon. Honor history and change the distance back to the original 24.8 miles (39.9 km). Long live Phidippides! #marathon #Greece

Here's a lesser known fact about the @bostonmarathon The idea for a Boston Marathon was hatched in Athens, Greece in 1896 at the conclusion of the first modern Olympics. #marathoners #celebrateyourhistory @NBCOlympics @AthensMarathon @runnersworld
Jamie Tighe is running, for the first time, with her daughter Ashley. Ashley is just 18 & is running her first marathon! Ashley says she has wanted to run the #BostonMarathon with her mom since she was 6 & saw her mom run it for the first time. Good luck to you both! #NeverSettle
