We have a list of area residents participating in the Jimmy Fund Walk.

Twelve residents from Marlborough will be among the thousands expected to participate in the annual Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk on Sunday, September 8.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the race which has raised nearly $87 million to date. Runners can choose between either the entire 26.2-mile Hopkinton to Boston route, the 13.1-mile Babson to Boston route, the 5-mile Boston College route, or the 3-mile route from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute to the Copley Square Finish. 

All walkers must raise a minimum of $300, and walkers 12 years old and younger have a fundraising minimum of $100. Pacesetters are extraordinary fundraisers who raise $1,500 or more.
