OF THESE AREAS OF ACTIVITY, THE LARGEST BY MEASURE OF BOTH EXPENSE AND REVENUE IS THE CONDUCT OF THE BAA BOSTON MARATHON. IT IS AMONG THE LEADING ATHLETIC EVENTS IN THE WORLD. THOSE WHO COMPETE RANGE FROM THE FINEST LONG DISTANCE RUNNERS IN THE WORLD - WHO COMPETE FOR SUBSTANTIAL PRIZE MONEY - TO CITIZEN ATHLETES FOR WHOM COMPETING IN THE BOSTON MARATHON REPRESENTS AN IMPORTANT PERSONAL AMBITION. THE BAA HAS MANAGED AND OPERATED THE BOSTON MARATHON CONTINUOUSLY SINCE 1897. THE BAA, THROUGH THE BOSTON MARATHON, AND IN SUPPORT OF THE ORGANIZATION'S OVERALL MISSION OF PROMOTING HEALTH AND FITNESS AND AN OVERALL HEALTHY LIFESTYLE, ENDEAVORS TO PROVIDE PUBLIC SERVICE IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS: - ENCOURAGING THE PUBLIC TO TRAIN FOR, QUALIFY FOR, AND RUN IN THE BOSTON MARATHON. - THE FACT THAT THE BOSTON MARATHON IS THE ONLY ANNUALLY CONTESTED MARATHON FOR WHICH MOST PARTICIPANTS QUALIFY BY MEETING RIGOROUS QUALIFICATION STANDARDS ENCOURAGES ATHLETES TO ASPIRE TO A HIGH LEVEL OF FITNESS, AND IN THE PROCESS, DISPLAY THE BENEFITS OF SO DOING TO THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. QUALIFICATION FOR THE BOSTON MARATHON REPRESENTS AN ASPIRATION FOR MANY ATHLETES, AND ACHIEVING THAT QUALIFICATION IS A SOURCE OF CONSIDERABLE GRATIFICATION AND SATISFACTION, ALL IN FURTHERANCE OF THEIR PURSUIT OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. - IN CONNECTION WITH THE BOSTON MARATHON, THE BAA ASSISTS MARATHON RUNNERS TO FUNDRAISE FOR A WIDE ARRAY OF CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS, MANY OF WHICH (A) PROMOTE HEALTH AND FITNESS, (B) CONDUCT RESEARCH AIMED AT TREATING AND ERADICATING DISEASE, OR (C) PROVIDE HEALTHCARE TREATMENT TO PERSONS AFFLICTED WITH SERIOUS DISEASES. THE BOSTON MARATHON CHARITY PROGRAM ENABLES ELECTED CHARITABLE ORGANIZATIONS TO RAISE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR WORTHWHILE CAUSES. IN 2024, THE BANK OF AMERICA BOSTON MARATHON OFFICIAL CHARIATY PROGRAM REACHED A NEW RECORD FUNDRAISING LEVEL OF $45.7 MILLION ACROSS 160 ORGANIZATIONS. SINCE THE OFFICIAL CHARITY PROGRAM'S INCEPTION IN 1989, MORE THAN $550 MILLION HAS BEEN RAISED SURROUNDING THE BOSTON MARATHON. - THE 2024 BOSTON MARATHON HAD AN ECONOMIC IMPACT OF $509.1 MILLION. THIS IMPACT WAS CALCULATED BY THE UNIVERISTY OF MASSACHUSETTS DONAHUE INSTITUE AND INCLUDES THE B.A.A.'S OPERATIONAL COSTS, SPENDING BY MARATHON PARTICIPANTS AND SPECATTORS, AND OTHER SECONDARY ECONOMIC IMPACTS FROM HOUSEHOLD SPENDING, TAXES AND VENDOR SPENDING. - THE BOSTON MARATHON REPRESENTS A SOURCE OF CONSIDERABLE CIVIC PRIDE TO MANY RESIDENTS OF THE GREATER BOSTON AREA. THEIR SUPPORT AND THE RESILIENCE AND STRENGTH THAT THEY HAVE DISPLAYED, ESPECIALLY IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY, SERVE TO ENHANCE CIVIC PRIDE IN THE RESILIENCE OF THOSE RESIDENTS. 6239218 461707 2247808 OPERATION AND MANAGEMENT OF OTHER EVENTS AND PROGRAMS THAT PROMOTE HEALTH AND FITNESS, INCLUDING: DESCRIBED HERE ARE THE OTHER EVENTS AND PROGRAMS CONDUCTED BY THE BAA, IN ADDITION TO THE BOSTON MARATHON. AS NOTED ABOVE THEY COMPRISE: (1) THE CONDUCT OF LONG DISTANCE, MASS PARTICIPATION RUNNING EVENTS IN ADDITION TO THE BAA BOSTON MARATHON, (2) THE PROVISION OF A VARIETY OF COMMUNITY SERVICE EVENTS DESIGNED TO BENEFIT GROUPS AND ORGANIZATIONS IN THE GREATER BOSTON AREA, AND (3) THE TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT OF RUNNING ATHLETES, AT BOTH THE ELITE AND SUB-ELITE LEVELS. AND EACH OF THESE IS DESCRIBED SEPARATELY BELOW: 1. ADDITIONAL RUNNING COMPETITIONS: - THE BAA CONDUCTS A SERIES OF ADDITIONAL LONG DISTANCE RUNNING EVENTS--BEYOND THE BOSTON MARATHON--OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, IN THE BOSTON AREA. THESE INCLUDE THE EVENTS THAT COMPRISE WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE "BAA DISTANCE MEDLEY": - THE BAA 5K, A 3.1 MILE ROAD RACE HELD IN BOSTON ANNUALLY ON THE SATURDAY OF BOSTON MARATHON WEEKEND INVOLVING 10,000 PARTICIPANTS - THE BAA 10K, A 6.2 MILE ROAD RACE CONDUCTED IN BOSTON ANNUALLY IN LATE JUNE INVOLVING 10,000 PARTICIPANTS; AND - THE BAA HALF MARATHON, A 13.1 MILE ROAD RACE CONDUCTED IN BOSTON ANNUALLY DURING THE SECOND WEEKEND IN OCTOBER INVOLVING 9,500 PARTICIPANTS. THESE EVENTS INCLUDE A PRIZE MONEY STRUCTURE FOR THE PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES WHO COMPETE IN THEM (DESCRIBED BELOW), BUT ARE ALSO DESIGNED TO APPEAL TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO DESIRE TO IMPROVE THEIR FITNESS AND HEALTH. THE EVENTS COMPRISE A "FITNESS CALENDAR" FOR THE YEAR, SUCH THAT INDIVIDUALS CAN BEGIN THE SPRING WITH A MODEST DISTANCE 5K RACE, PROGRESS IN JUNE TO A LONGER RACE, AND THEN IN THE FALL BE PREPARED TO RUN A HALF MARATHON. THESE EVENTS ALSO ALLOW MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO COMPETE ALONGSIDE SOME OF THE FINEST RUNNERS IN THE WORLD. FOR PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES IN THE DISTANCE MEDLEY THE PRIZE MONEY AWARDED IN THE SERIES INCLUDES A PURSE FOR EACH RACE AND BONUS INCENTIVES FOR THE TOP FINISHERS IN THE INDIVIDUAL EVENTS AND FOR EVENT RECORD TIMES SET AT THESE EVENTS. DISTANCE MEDLEY EXPENSES ARE RECORDED IN THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES AND CHANGES IN NET ASSETS WITHIN THE APPLICABLE RACE EXPENSES IN PROPORTION TO THE REVENUE EARNED BY EACH RACE IN THE DISTANCE MEDLEY. 2. BAA COMMUNITY SERVICE PROGRAMS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: - TRAINING CLINICS AND SEMINARS THAT ASSIST INDIVIDUALS IN TRAINING AND PREPARING FOR ATHLETIC COMPETITION AND IN PURSUING A HEALTH LIFESTYLE GENERALLY. - THE CLUB 128 PROGRAM, THAT ALLOWS MIDDLE SCHOOL AGED CHILDREN FROM THE CITIES AND TOWNS ALONG THE BOSTON MARATHON ROUTE AND SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRAIN AND COMPETE AS RELAY TEAMS IN BOSTON ON MARATHON WEEKEND IN THE BAA RELAY CHALLENGE, THEREBY PROMOTING THE HEALTH AND FITNESS OF THOSE CHILDREN AND OTHERS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES AND ELSEWHERE. OVER 21,000 HAVE PARTICIPATED SINCE THE INCEPTION OF THE PROGRAM. - COORDINATION AND STAGING OF THE BOSTON MIDDLE SCHOOL CROSS COUNTRY PROGRAM INVOLVING STUDENTS FROM 13 BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THE MULTI-WEEK PROGRAM CULMINATES IN CHAMPIONSHIP RACES IN FRANKLIN PARK IN BOSTON, AND IS INTENDED AS AN INSPIRATIONAL INTRODUCTION TO THE SPORT AND A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. - THE BAA AND THE DIMOCK COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER HAVE COLLABORATED TO ESTABLISH A 5K NEIGHBORHOOD RACE KNOWN AS THE "ROAD TO WELLNESS." AS ONE OF MASSACHUSETTS' LARGEST COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS THEIR AIM IS TO PROMOTE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE FOR THE RESIDENTS OF ROXBURY AND THE SURROUNDING AREA. THE REACH OF THE EVENT EXTENDS BEYOND THE DAY OF THE RACE ITSELF, THROUGH A MULTI-WEEK PERIOD OF TRAINING AND BRINGS THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER FOR THE 5K RACE IN FAMILIAR STREETS. AS THE BAA EXPANDS ITS COMMUNITY SERVICE OFFERINGS IT IS EXPECTED THAT THERE WILL BE FURTHER COLLABORATIONS OF THIS NATURE, DESIGNED TO BENEFIT COMMUNITY MEMBERS OF ALL AGES, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS IN WHICH SUCH EVENTS ARE LACKING. - IN 2017 THE BAA ESTABLISHED THE BOSTON MARATHON YOUTH JAMBOREE WHICH IS DESIGNED TO INSPIRE CHILDREN IN GRADES PRE-K THROUGH 8TH GRADE TO BE ACTIVE BY ENGAGING THEM IN FUN AND AGE APPROPRIATE TRACK & FIELD-INSPIRED EVENTS. DESIGNED TO BE INCLUSIVE, THE EVENT WELCOMES PARTICIPATION BY CHILDREN OF ALL ABILITY LEVELS. THE BAA REBRANDED THIS EVENT IN 2023 AS ONE OF A SERIES OF NEIGHBORHOOD FITNESS EVENTS ACROSS BOSTON WHICH ENGAGE ATHLETES IN DIFFERENT NEIGHBORHOODS INCLUDING EAST BOSTON, DORCHESTER, MATTAPAN, AND ROXBURY . - THE BAA INITIATED A CHARITABLE GIVING PROGRAM IN FISCAL YEAR 2019, THROUGH WHICH A SELECT NUMBER OF BOSTON MARATHON PARTICIPANTS RAISED FUNDS FOR THE BAA TO INVEST IN MISSION CONGRUENT ACTIVITIES, SUCH AS THE COMMUNITY AND YOUTH RUNNING PROGRAMS DESCRIBED ABOVE. ATHLETES REGISTERED FOR THE 2024 BOSTON MARATHON RAISED OVER $435,000 AS OF JUNE 30, 2024. THE BAA DISTRIBUTED OVER $295,000 OF THESE FUNDS IN GRANTS OR CONTRIBUTIONS DIRECTLY TO MISSION ALIGNED PROGRAMS. - DEVELOPED AND LEAD BY THE B.A.A., THE BOSTON RUNNING COLLABORATIVE (BRC) CONVENES ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS COMMITTED TO BUILDING A DIVERSE BOSTON RUNNING COMMUNITY, IMPROVING HEALTH AND WELLNESS, AND EXPANDING ACCESS TO RUNNING AND WALKING IN BOSTON WITH A FOCUS ON COMMUNITIES OF COLOR. 3. THE TRAINING AND DEVELOPING OF ATHLETES. - THE BAA HAS FOR MANY YEARS OPERATED THE BAA RUNNING CLUB, WHICH PROVIDES COACHING, TRAINING AND COMPETITIVE OUTLETS FOR ITS 250 MEMBERS. THE CLUB IS A 52-WEEK PER YEAR EFFORT WHICH INCLUDES PRACTICES, WORKOUTS, RACING AND VOLUNTEER ACTIONS. THE RUNNING CLUB INCLUDES ATHLETES WHOSE ABILITY EXTENDS FROM SUB-OLYMPIC, NATIONAL CLASS COMPETITORS TO THOSE WHO TRAIN TO SEEK SOLID PERFORMANCES IN EVENTS THAT ARE MORE LOCAL IN CHARACTER. - IN 2013, THE BAA ADDED A HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPONENT TO ITS ALREADY-EXISTING BAA RUNNING CLUB. THIS GROUP COMPRISES AN ELITE TEAM OF 8-12 AMERICAN RUNNERS SUPPORTED BY THE ORGANIZATION, WITH THE FINANCIAL SUPPORT OF ADIDAS, AT THE LEVEL NECESSARY TO ACCOMPLISH THE HIGHEST ATHLETIC PURSUITS WITHIN THE SPORT OF RUNNING, SUCH AS MAKING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP AND OLYMPIC TEAMS. THE PROVISION OF COACHING AND TRAINING SERVICES TO THIS SELECTED GROUP OF HIGHLY SKILLED ATHLETES IN ORDER TO FURTHER THE DEVELOPMENT OF NATIONAL AND WORLD CLASS U.S. DISTANCE RUNNERS WHO CAN ASPIRE TO COMPETE INTERNATIONALLY, DISPLAYING THEREBY THE VISIBILITY AND BENEFITS OF ATHLETICS AND FITNESS, IS CONSISTENT WITH THE BAA'S MISSION OF PROMOTING FITNESS THROUGH RUNNING. 30649800 true true false false false false false true false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false true true false false true false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 226 0 true 46 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false X 11 11 false false false false true true true true true false false true true true true true true true true false MA X JOHN FLEMING 6172361652 699 BOYLSTON STREET SUITE 800 BOSTON MA 02116 X JOHN FLEMING PRESIDENT & CEO 40.0 0.0 X 338757 0 44290 SCOTT STOVER CHIEF MARKETING OFFICER 40.0 0.0 X 190030 0 39170 LAUREN CLINE CHIEF OF RACE OPS & PRODUCTION 40.0 0.0 X 197845 0 30996 TIERNEY CAREY CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER 40.0 0.0 X 197629 0 21617 DENIS MARK CARROL HEAD OF ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE 40.0 0.0 X 182458 0 20793 THOMAS S GRILK SPECIAL ADVISOR 5.0 0.0 X 153086 0 39456 CHRISTIE ABENDROTH DIRECTOR OF HR 40.0 0.0 X 152302 0 37947 MARY KATE SHEA DIRECTOR OF PRO ATHLETES 40.0 0.0 X 159755 0 20121 CHRIS MINERD SALESFORCE MANAGER 40.0 0.0 X 144643 0 19314 SUSAN CLEARY DIRECTOR OF ATHLETE SERVICES 40.0 0.0 X 139609 0 17842 LORNA CAMPBELL DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC RELATIONS 40.0 0.0 X 127076 0 8282 JOANN FLAMINIO GOVERNOR/CLERK 10.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 DR MICHAEL O'LEARY CHAIRMAN (THRU NOV 2023) 10.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 PETER R BROWN GOVERNOR 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 CHERI BLAUWET MD BOARD CHAIR (AS OF NOV 2023) 15.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 WILLIAM B EVANS GOVERNOR 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 GUY L MORSE III GOVERNOR 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 KEITH MCDERMOTT GOVERNOR/VICE CHAIR 5.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 JEFFREY R CAMERON GOVERNOR 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 WILLIAM MCCARRON GOVERNOR/TREASURER 5.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 ADRIENNE R BENTON GOVERNOR 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 WILLIAM F LEE GOVERNOR 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 1983190 0 299828 16 false true false INTERSTATE RENTAL SERVICE INC 384 AMORY STREET PO BOX 300729 BOSTON MA 02130 TECH RACE PRODUCTION 3059004 DMSE SPORTS 77 BEAR HILL ROAD NORTH ANDOVER MA 01845 RACE MANAGEMENT 822353 BOSTONCIO LLC 88 CODDING ROAD NORTON MA 02766 CIO CONSULTING SVCS 314112 A YANKEE LINE INC 370 WEST FIRST STREET BOSTON MA 02127 TRANSPORTATION SRVS 915100 SPORTFIVE MEDIA LLC 488 MADISON AVE FL 16 NEW YORK NY 10022 TV PRODUCTION 253955 10 83348 22130133 3352102 22213481 ENTRY FEES 900099 11097053 11097053 ROYALTIES AND OTHER FEES 900099 852894 852894 MEMBERSHIP DUES 900099 41101 41101 EXPO REVENUE 900099 47000 47000 TICKET SALES 900099 212029 212029 34579 34579 12284656 731299 731299 0 0 0 3593 -3593 0 -3593 -3593 0 29700 83348 127672 -97972 -97972 0 0 0 0 0 0 UTILITY REIMBURSEMENT 1335 1335 1335 35129206 11384762 0 1530963 X 2203630 2203630 0 0 0 2334115 1400469 513505 420141 0 2296665 1837332 344500 114833 199902 159922 39980 364495 291596 72899 323203 258562 64641 770000 770000 19885 19885 136678 136678 0 881250 881250 0 4663883 4444066 219817 11048 11048 1168099 1098013 70086 1260992 1008794 252198 0 766515 613212 153303 1455531 1455531 0 59540 47632 11908 29565 23652 5913 0 171551 171551 726638 581310 145328 CONTRIBUTED GOODS 3352102 3352102 PRIZE MONEY 1274728 1274728 CORPORATE PARTNER EXPENSE 855682 855682 RUNNER TRANSPORTATION 1018178 1018178 7772790 7772790 34116665 30649800 2050641 1416224 1607563 1104565 10874274 11481647 0 0 2427633 1687485 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4730757 1987897 1255697 2742860 13459802 14793947 0 0 0 0 0 0 1448964 1621676 31073933 33432180 3020404 3687786 0 0 1272604 1002966 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4293008 4690752 X 26780925 28741428 0 0 26780925 28741428 31073933 33432180 X 1012541 947962 X false true X true false X 3666295 2053855 23731142 16696986 22213481 68361759 1802454 3026271 19629400 12251944 12284656 48994725 6377913 6377913 0 0 5468749 11458039 43360542 28948930 34498137 123734397 2023250 1146375 15935125 11239298 17813312 48157360 39441 31392 41801 200992 53647 367273 2062691 1177767 15976926 11440290 17866959 48524633 75209764 587152 394156 342724 446704 731299 2502035 0 587152 394156 342724 446704 731299 2502035 0 10096 8563 5786 9532 1335 35312 6065997 11860758 43709052 29405166 35230771 126271744 0.59562 0.65538 0.01981 0.02054 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED X false 413566 413566 1164031 441198 722833 1663725 374251 1289474 1314435 997448 316987 175000 175000 0 2742860 37763660 947961 1555228 2503189 35260471 -131265 -131265 35129206 35803158 1555228 131265 1686493 34116665 34116665 SCHEDULE D, PART III: THE B.A.A.
