MINNETONKA — One runner from Minnetonka completed the 2022 Boston Marathon on Monday morning, making their 26.2-mile journey from Hopkinton to the famed Boylston Street finish line.

The 2020 Boston Marathon was postponed before being canceled, the first time the race didn't take place in its 125-year history.

In 2021, the Boston Athletic Association reduced the field and held the marathon in October, with less than 20,000 runners competing. The field was back to about 30,000 runners Monday.
