Unknown price, eligibility or availability remains blank. A route appearing here does not replace the organizer’s final terms.
This is the organizer’s qualifier-registration route; exact standards must be checked on the official B.A.A. page.

Race travel decisions
Only the verified race city (Boston) is available. Search city-wide now, but do not assume a hotel is near the start.
Read medical, cancellation, pre-existing-condition and race-activity wording before price. Race Guide does not decide suitability for you.
For ballots, wait for the draw and payment confirmation unless you have a real Plan B. Compare total baggage and change costs, not headline fare alone.

Race-day operations
Unknown details stay unknown until the organizer publishes them.
Qualifier registration for 2027 runs 14–18 September 2026; meeting the standard creates an application opportunity, not guaranteed entry.
B.A.A. 2027 registration guidance ↗The B.A.A. states qualifier registration is not first-come, first-served; applications are verified and ranked by margin under the relevant standard.
B.A.A. application process ↗The latest participant guidance requires runners to collect their own bib with government photo ID and a digital pickup pass; 2027 specifics await that edition’s guide.
B.A.A. latest participant guidance ↗Official results and race archive
Use the B.A.A. results archive for historic finishes, then pair it with the latest official course and participant guidance. No verified video is attached to the course page, so third-party edits are excluded.
Plan B
Protect the training cycle first. Full matching also uses month, distance and live entry status.
