152 Rhode Islanders to Run the 2017 Boston Marathon

NARRAGANSETT, RI — That bib number is more than just a number for those who run the Boston Marathon. Many run in memory of a loved one, raising money for a cause that helps keep that person alive for them.

Others sign up for the legendary race for health, a challenge for their mind, body and spirit. And others are professional runners who are in it to win it.

Whatever the reason, it's a challenge that is meaningful, and one that requires training all year that will help them make it the 26.2 miles of the historic Hopkinton to Boston route.

According to the Boston Marathon's site, 152 Rhode Islanders are in the race.

The following is the list of runners from Patch towns in Rhode Island who are signed up to participate in the 122d Boston Marathon, set for Monday, April 17.
