The Boston Marathon is back in person after a virtual race last year. There may not be as many runners along the 26.2 mile course, but the spirit, enthusiasm, and passion are just as strong as ever. Shayna Seymour shares the stories of people putting miles on their bodies to raise money for local causes. She also reports on the history of the race and takes us to the scariest spot on the course: Heartbreak Hill.

The Boston Marathon Returns

Sept. 11, 2021, marks the 20th anniversary of the deadliest terrorist attacks on U.S. soil. A day that not only changed the trajectory for our country but a day that left permanent scars on the people and loved ones of those who were directly impacted. Anthony Everett sits down with former ABC anchor Charlie Gibson, who was one of the first journalists to report the news of the attacks 20 years ago. We then meet Lieutenant Michael Goldberg and Paramedic Robert Hopkins, two local first responders who stepped into action to assist in rescue and recovery efforts at ground zero.

Also tonight, what some local employers are doing to put moms in focus.
