This weekend, the KT Tape Team made it’s first appearance at the Boston Marathon and John Hancock Health and Fitness Expo. We had a great time meeting with runners, spectators and journalists, answering questions and taping up athletes.We even met a few celebrities including Dick Beardsley and the 1980 Boston Marathon women’s winner.
We found that the most common injuries marathoners requested taping for included shin splints, runner’s knee, IT band and Achilles tendonitis. And in the spirit of the city of Boston, runners loved the new “Green Monster” Green and the “Red Sox” Red KT Tape.
Our advice to runners looking to participate in the Boston Marathon: Put your name along with your number on your bib — you’ll have a lot more fans cheering your name no matter what place you come in!
So thanks to the city of Boston and the folks at the Boston Marathon! We can’t wait to see you again next year!
