The 2022 Boston Marathon was a marathon race held in Boston, Massachusetts, on April 18, 2022. It was the 126th official running of the race,[1] and 124th time it was run on course (excluding the virtual event of 2020, and the ekiden of 1918).[2] The field was limited to 30,000 runners.[1]

Background
The marathon returned to its traditional Patriots' Day schedule for the first time since 2019. All participants were required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.[1]
Lawrence Cherono and Benson Kipruto, both from Kenya, were among the elite runners expected to compete.[3][4]
On April 6, race organizers announced that runners residing in Russia or Belarus would not be allowed to participate, due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[5] That decision subsequently drew criticism from an editorial in The Boston Globe.[6]
Results
The elite men's and women's races were won by Kenyans Evans Chebet and Peres Jepchirchir, respectively.[7] Wheelchair races were won by Daniel Romanchuk of the US (men) and Manuela Schär of Switzerland (women).[7] Wheelchair racer Marcel Hug withdrew hours before the race started, for an unknown reason.[8]
Olympic bronze medalist Molly Seidel, who had a hip impingement, dropped out of the race at around 16 miles (26 km) due to a hip injury. This was the first time she ran in the Boston Marathon.[9]
