Registration for 2026 is now Open!
We’ve moved our race date – so mark your calendars!
Same great race! Same great place!
NOW positioned one week before the Boston Marathon,
so we changed the name to – The Team Hoyt Taper.
The Team Hoyt Taper is a family-friendly road race that celebrates inclusion,
community, and the enduring legacy of Dick & Rick Hoyt.
Featuring a 5-mile run, 2-mile walk, and a kids race, the event welcomes athletes
of all ages and abilities —from seasoned runners to families and first-timers.
Held in Hopkinton just before the Boston Marathon, and passing the famed START LINE and
Team Hoyt Statue, the race is a perfect way to soak up Marathon Week energy!
Join us to RUN, WALK, or ROLL and be part of the ‘YES YOU CAN’ movement!
