Boston, from One Citizen of the World Who Calls Himself a Runner
Posted by Haruki Murakami

In the past thirty years, I’ve run thirty-three full marathons. I’ve run marathons all over the world, but
whenever someone asks me which is my favorite, I never hesitate to answer: the Boston Marathon, which I have
run six times. What’s so wonderful about the Boston Marathon? It’s simple: it’s the oldest race of its kind
; the course is beautiful; and?here’s the most important point?everything about the race is natural, free.
The Boston Marathon is not a top-down but a bottom-up kind of event; it was steadily, thoughtfully crafted by
the citizens of Boston themselves, over a considerable period of time. Every time I run the race, the feelings
of the people who created it over the years are on display for all to appreciate, and I’m enveloped in a warm
glow, a sense of being back in a place I missed. It’s magical. Other marathons are amazing, too?the New York
City Marathon, the Honolulu Marathon, the Athens Marathon. Boston, however (my apologies to the organizers of
those other races), is unique.
***
I lived for three years on the outskirts of Boston. I was a visiting scholar at Tufts for two years, and then,
after a short break, I was at Harvard for a year. During that time, I jogged along the banks of the Charles
River every morning. I understand how important the Boston Marathon is to the people of Boston, what a source
of pride it is to the city and its citizens. Many of my friends regularly run the race and serve as volunteers.
