There is a time and a season for everything. Spring is the time for romance.
Summer is a time for travel, sightseeing and a trip to the beach.
Winter is a time for family gatherings and curling up with a book. And fall is a time for raking leaves, watching the fall foliage, and long distance running, especially marathon running. Boston is the rite of spring, but in much of the USA, fall is the best time of year to run a marathon. The crisp, cool air is ideal for training after a long, hot summer. Many fall marathons across the land feature a beautiful, scenic backdrop, making for a complete 26.2 mile experience.
