Athletes can submit a registration application between September 14-18 in Athletes’ Village
BOSTON – The Boston Athletic Association (B.A.A.) reminds athletes that qualifier registration for the 131st Boston Marathon presented by Bank of America opened today, September 14, and will remain open through Friday, September 18. The 131st Boston Marathon will be run on Patriots’ Day, Monday, April 19, 2027.
QUALIFIER REGISTRATION TIMETABLE
Qualifier registration opened Monday, September 14 at 10:00 a.m. ET and will close on Friday, September 18, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. ET. The B.A.A. will use the same registration process for qualified runners as it used for the 2021 through 2026 races, allowing any athlete who has achieved a currently valid Boston Marathon qualifying time to submit a registration application during Registration Week, September 14-18.
Registration is held within the B.A.A.’s online platform Athletes’ Village. Registration is not on a first-come, first-served basis – all applications will be accepted until 5:00 p.m. ET on Friday, September 18 and treated in the same manner regardless of when they are submitted during the application period.
Following the close of registration week on September 18, the B.A.A. will review all submissions, verify qualifying times, and rank athletes based on how much they surpassed their qualifying standard. The fastest qualifiers by age group will be accepted and will determine the “cut-off” time. The number of athletes accepted will be consistent with recent years.
New for 2027, the B.A.A. will incorporate a Boston Qualifier Selection, an additional random selection component specifically for applicants whose qualifying time was not faster than the cut-off. Approximately 1,000 qualifiers will be randomly selected for entry, rewarding athletes who’ve achieved a Boston qualifier. More information on the Boston Qualifier Selection can be found here.
QUALIFYING WINDOW & STANDARDS
The 2027 Boston Marathon qualifying window began on September 13, 2025, and will close at 5:00 p.m. ET on Friday, September 18, 2026.
Qualifying standards for the 131st Boston Marathon can be found here. Achieving a Boston Marathon qualifying standard does not guarantee acceptance into the event. Those who are fastest among the pool of applicants in their age and gender group will be accepted, followed by the 1,000 entries randomly selected through the Boston Qualifier Selection.
ENTRY FEE
The entry fee for accepted qualifiers will be $270 USD. Participants will have the opportunity to purchase registration insurance at the point of registration. Entry fees will only be processed once an athlete is accepted into the Boston Marathon.
132nd BOSTON MARATHON (2028)
The qualifying window for the 132nd Boston Marathon presented by Bank of America will open on Saturday, September 19, 2026 – one day after Registration Week for the 2027 event closes. The qualifying window will remain open through 2028 Boston Marathon Registration Week in September, 2027.
