Boston Marathon 2025: Running through Wellesley

The 2025 Boston Marathon was an absolute end-to-end, sun-soaked party for the 4-plus mile stretch in Wellesley just before Wellesley College to Lower Falls entering Newton. The crowds were out in big numbers cheering on the more than 30,000 participants, from the wheelchair athletes who led the pack to the charity runners in the final wave.

(We’ll add info on Wellesley’s top finishers when it becomes available.)

Here’s some of what we saw:
