This past April, the Boston Marathon celebrated the 50th anniversary of Bob Hall tearing down barriers for wheelchair racers in Boston and paving the way for wheelchair marathoners worldwide. Renowned marathon legends Bob Hall and Bill Rodgers were grand marshals for the 129th Boston Marathon.
Now REquipment is thrilled to announce that Bob Hall has generously donated charity bibs for the 130th Boston Marathon to benefit your favorite nonprofit. Yes, REquipment is going to the races in 2026!
Have you always wanted to run the Boston Marathon? Join Bob Hall’s REquipment Racers and help tear down barriers in Massachusetts to durable home medical equipment and assistive technology for individuals with disabilities.
These bibs are an amazing opportunity for marathoners of all stripes.
- Marathoners who have not qualified for Boston but want to race can apply and sign up for a REquipment charity bib with free registration. REquipment is looking for racers eager to hit defined fundraising goals and get the word out about the nonprofit that changes lives across Massachusetts with free equipment.
- Marathoners who have qualified for Boston can also join Bob Hall’s REquipment Racers and fundraise with their own bib.
