It sounds like Hopkinton and Ashland are front runners to land a Marathon Museum, but other towns and cities along the 26.2-mile Boston Marathon route are also expected to show interest. The Boston Globe reports on a $60K feasibility study being conducted regarding such a showcase of running, not just the Boston Marathon.

According to town officials in Wellesley, which features the Boston Marathon’s midpoint and 4+ miles of the course, “We will keep an eye out for the Feasibility Study results and will share with the Board of Selectmen to see if they would like to participate in some way.”
