Your time, your name and your bib

You type them in; we work out your average pace. With your watch’s GPX, your splits per km too.

A designed print, not a generic poster

Careful typography and plenty of white space, made to be framed.

Vector: prints sharp at any size, from 30 × 40 to 70 × 100 cm.

The course

It is a point-to-point race: it starts in Hopkinton, west of Boston, and reaches the city almost in a straight line through Ashland, Framingham, Natick and Wellesley. It enters Newton along Washington Street, climbs to Heartbreak Hill, passes Boston College and Brookline, crosses Kenmore under the Citgo sign and finishes on Boylston Street, beside Copley Square.

Questions

Is it the official course?

Yes: we draw it from the course published by the organisers and check it against their official map. The distance is the official one, 42.195 km.

Can I add my time and bib number?

Yes. In the designer you type your name, finish time and bib number and see the poster change before you pay. Upload your watch’s GPX and we add your splits per km without changing the official course.

When do I get it?

The PDF lands in your inbox as soon as payment is confirmed, for €15.90. Printed and framed posters are coming very soon.

What if it’s a gift and I don’t know their time?

Give a gift card: you pay and they design their own poster with their name, time and bib number. It never expires. Is it a gift? Give a gift card

Are you the race organisers?

No. KM Poster is an independent studio: we design posters from the public course. We don’t use the race’s logo or brand.
