Come Monday, Boylston Street will be filled with cheering spectators and thousands of runners making their way to the Boston Marathon finish line.
The mood was far more somber on Saturday as Boston marked the 10th anniversary of the 2013 marathon bombings.
Five people were killed in the bombings and their aftermath: Martin Richard, 8; Lingzi Lu, 23; Krystle Campbell, 29; Sean Collier, 27; and Dennis “DJ” Simmonds, 28. Hundreds more were injured.
The city and the Boston Athletic Association have planned two remembrance events to honor the victims and survivors on April 15, One Boston Day.
