717. My 2024 Boston Marathon Experience

Published: April 25, 2024, 9 a.m.

"To have\xa0Long Live playing while I was standing on this stage feeling really proud of a show I had just done, and hugging so many of you, and feeling like we\u2019re in this together\u2026 Those moments are really magical to me, and they are the memories that I hope I have forever."

There\u2019s nowhere I\u2019d rather be on the third Monday in April than at the Boston Marathon finish line! This year, I was honored to be asked back to perform a variety of roles in Boston. I was one of the start and finish line announcers at the Boston 5K and invitational miles, I hosted three live shows, I was one of the race announcers at the finish on Marathon Monday, and I was the finish line reporter for the world feed broadcast.\xa0It was a fun, rewarding weekend that included quality time with my favorite people, one of my all-time favorite live events, a million finish line hugs, an interview with Rob Gronkowski,\xa0and so much more.
