Deb Haaland, President Biden’s secretary of the Interior, was amongst this year’s more recognizable novice runners.
Haaland wrote in an viewpoint post for The Boston Globe that she was functioning the marathon, which is getting area on Indigenous People’s Day, as a tribute to “missing and murdered Indigenous peoples and their households, the victims of Indian boarding educational facilities, and the promise that our voices are getting listened to and will have a part in an equitable and just future in this new period.”
