Always held on Patriots' Day, the third Monday of April, the Boston Marathon is the world's oldest annual marathon, second longest continuously running footrace in North America AND ranks as one of the world's best-known road racing events! I'm sure you've heard of it... you might have even raced in it.
What's Patriots' Day? A commemoration of the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the first battles of the American Revolutionary War. It makes sense that the marathon, held on that day, is a run through history.
So what's the deal with this Saucony shoe?
The Saucony Boston Freedom ISO is inspired by the historic Freedom Trail, a 2.5 mile path through downtown Boston, part of the Boston Marathon route, that passes 16 landmarks significant to the American Revolution. Battle the cobblestone streets with EVERUN Continuous Cushioning, for more energy return, more responsiveness and a more amazing run from your first step to your last.
A Boston Freedom Trail design can be found on the inside of the shoe with speckles of gold splashing the outsole and full gold aglets, logo, and tongue! 2017 marked the 120th running of the Boston Marathon, so it seemed an appropriate time to make something REVOLUTIONARY.
