From Hopkinton to Boston, marathon absence is seen and felt

Written By Bob Lawson

AP News | “It All Starts Here.” The motto is bannered on the Hopkinton website, laid into the floor of the Marathon Elementary School, painted on a sign that sends Boston Marathon participants off on their way to Copley Square. Since 1924, this 300-year-old town, serendipitously located 26.2 miles west of Boston, has been the starting line for the world’s most prestigious road race and, like Marathon and Athens themselves, the two are enduringly linked.
