About Marathon Motivations.
Thomas Smith created Marathon Motivations to inspire and motivate everyday people to do something that’s greater than themselves. Our collective goal is to both help these individuals raise awareness, and ultimately, help them to have an even greater impact on their respective non-profit organizations.
Marathon Motivations is now airing on NESN (New England Sports Network) so be sure to tune in, set your DVRs, or check out our YouTube channel. We promise you will be moved by these truly remarkable and inspiring stories of runners participating in this year’s Boston Marathon!
