In episode 1, we met the 9 women of this series and learned about how they got started in this sport. In episode 2, we learned about Patty’s and Amanda’s journeys to running marathons, which is inextricably linked to the Boston Marathon; in that episode we also learned about the Boston Marathon course. In episode 3, we featured the marathoning stories of Rochelle, Marija, Zarah, and Jonna, and episode 4 explored why Yao, Nicole, and Cherie run marathons.  Following those, we have episodes about how we all prepared for the Boston Marathon; then we gave a look back to how we all earned our entries into the Boston Marathon; and our penultimate episode looked at our final preparation before the big day.
