Cathy Connor loves the Boston Marathon. She loves the mystique of the event, which dates to 1897 as the world’s oldest annual marathon. Ms. Connor, 58, loves the Boston Marathon so much that she has raced in it nine times. “It was kind of a letdown when I saw the picture,” Ms. Connor, a graphic designer from Pittsburgh, said in a telephone interview. This isn’t a turkey trot.”

The Boston Marathon is arguably the most elusive finish line of all, and not just anyone can cross it. In 2013, on a cool, partly sunny day, this ebullient scene was shattered when two bombs exploded near the finish line. On Monday, nearly 30,000 runners will journey, down and up and down, toward the finish line of the 127th Boston Marathon.
