Running in Boston: what the weather does to your run
Boston serves cold, wind, and damp in equal measure. Winter runs along the Charles are exposed and raw, with wind chill the deciding factor more often than snow. Summers are warm and humid but short, and the city's prime marathon-training fall is cool, crisp, and close to ideal.
