BOSTON — The 2021 Boston Marathon was Monday morning, with four runners from Maple Grove making their 26.2-mile journey from Hopkinton to the famed Boylston Street finish line in Boston.

The 2021 Boston Marathon for the first time was held in the fall, pushed back six months from its traditional April date due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 Boston Marathon was postponed before being canceled, the first time the race didn't take place in its 124-year history (though there was a virtual event.)

The Marathon returned with a reduced field of fewer than 20,000 runners — the usual amount is over 30,000. Those running didn't need to wear masks on the course, but they did to enter any medical tents or other facilities; Boston has an indoor mask mandate in effect. Runners had to be vaccinated or have a recent negative COVID-19 test.
