Registration is open for the 2024 Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk - Oct 6

Registration is now open for the 2024 Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk presented by Hyundai. Scheduled for Sunday, October 6th, funds raised from the walk support all forms of adult and pediatric patient care and cancer research at the nation’s premier cancer centers, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. 

 The Jimmy Fund Walk is the only organized walk permitted on the famed Boston Marathon® course, and participants have the flexibility to choose from four distance options:

• Half Marathon Walk (from Wellesley)
