MORE THAN 100 GOLDEN RETRIEVERS WILL HONOUR OFFICIAL BOSTON MARATHON DOG SPENCER
With less than a week to go before the 127th Boston Marathon, there's plenty to explore. On Sunday, April 16th, the eve of the world's most famous marathon, more than 100 golden retrievers will cross the finish line to honour Spencer's official racing dog. The beloved canine, known for waving the Boston Strong flag in his mouth as runners passed by, succumbed to cancer in February 2023, heartbreaking the hearts of Massachusetts residents. The upcoming event is a way to pay tribute to his wonderful spirit.
A one-mile walk the day before the official race have been organised by Golden Retriever owners and Members of the MA Golden Meetups where over 100 gold medals and their owners will run the final leg of the marathon and cross the finish line to honour Spencer's legacy.
