Name: Steven Iannacone
Age: 55
From: Hingham
I am humbled to be running my tenth Boston Marathon for my patient partner Jace Perkins and Boston Children’s Hospital! This started as a bucket list item in 2013, but I was not able to finish and the BAA gave me another bid for 2014. I finished that year and was hooked!
Since then I have completed the Abbott World Marathon Majors, with my 6th star in Tokyo last March, and am now focused on my last Boston for #TeamJace and going out with a bang!
