I have registered, Which airport to fly into leaving from edmonton Alberta, best town to stay in finishline or near start line), is their a bus from the finish line back to start line, where is the exbow and party, Start or Finish line, who can i talk to to book cheepest accomadations.

Answer
Congratulations! I just ran the Philadelphia marathon on Sunday myself. As for where to fly into, you will come into Boston Logan International Airport.

I would suggest staying at any hotel downtown near Copley Square, where the finish line is. There are free buses to the 'start' line that leave in the early AM, and they ride you into Hopkinton, where the start line is.

The expo is near the finish line area at the Hynes Convention Center, along with the pasta dinner party.

Hope this all helps.
