This week marked the 129th edition of the Boston Marathon. Tens of thousands of runners, wheelchair riders, and hand cyclists finished the journey from Hopkinton to Boylston Street this week, while about a half million spectators lined the 26.2 mile-long course to cheer the participants on. Thousands of those attendees watched the action unfold here in Framingham. We spoke with some of them to learn about what brought them to the area–from near and far–and to learn about who they were cheering on.
