Stop 1
Sam Adams
The opening pour. Brewery confidence is high and everyone still believes in logistics.
Stop 2
Bleacher Bar
The Fenway-adjacent checkpoint. Baseball atmosphere, beer, and just enough crowd noise.
Stop 3
Night Shift Esplanade
A river-side reset before the course starts feeling like a real commitment.
Stop 4
Pier 6
Harbor views do excellent work distracting from the miles between stops.
Stop 5
Union Oyster House
Historic Boston energy, seafood temptation, and a reminder that pacing includes snacks.
Stop 6
Lord Hobo
The mid-course beer decision that sounds sensible until the next leg starts.
Stop 7
L Street
South Boston grit, blue-course spirit, and the part where enthusiasm gets negotiated.
Stop 8
BBQ Smoke Shop
Food becomes strategy here. The smoked-meat detour is practically medical advice.
Stop 9
Rock Bottom
A late-course name that feels like a warning and somehow still works as motivation.
Stop 10
Ward 8
The last true checkpoint. Feet are filing complaints, but the finish is finally nearby.
Finish
Trillium
The waterfront finish line. Relief, celebration, and maybe one more beer in the blue.
