OTHER
WAYS TO BE PART OF THE ACTION
If you can’t actually compete in
the Run of the Charles,
then the next best thing is to watch the fun from the riverbanks
along the race-course. There
are a number of great vantage points between the start of the $5000
Professional Flatwater Marathon, the 19-Mile Races at Riverdale
Park, Dedham, and the Finish Line Festival at DCR’s Herter Park,
Brighton. Click

information on the best viewing
locations.
