The 128th Boston Marathon brought tears of joy and tears of pain. It brought new faces and seasoned veterans. And it brought thousands of runners through Newton.
The weather couldn’t have been better for a spring outing. Crowds of spectators lined the route cheering and exuding enough energy to carry the exhausted runners over Heartbreak Hill.
Below are photos and videos from Heartbreak Hill (in the area where Commonwealth Avenue meets Centre Street) near the 20-mile marker of the Boston Marathon.
