The Boston Marathon, first run in 1897, is the world's oldest annual marathon and finishes each year on Boylston Street after a course that begins in Hopkinton. Bank of America has served as the race's presenting sponsor since 2007, backing both the elite competition and its charitable fundraising arm. "Miles for Miracles" is the official marathon program of Boston Children's Hospital, allowing runners to earn bib entries in exchange for raising money for the hospital's patient programs. MBTA transit ads promoting the race and its associated causes typically run each spring in the weeks leading up to Marathon Monday.
