Enter iFIT’s Second Chance Marathon Opportunity for a Chance to Run the Boston Marathon® Presented by Bank of America in 2025

For countless runners and athletes, the Boston Marathon® presented by Bank of America is the ultimate dream, from the iconic starting line in Hopkinton to the challenge of Heartbreak Hill and the rush of crossing the finish line on Boylston Street.

Sadly, each year thousands of runners qualify for the Boston Marathon® but are not selected to run the race. 

iFIT is here to offer you a second chance at Boston with the Second Chance Marathon Opportunity! If you have the goal of completing the 2025 Boston Marathon® and qualified for the 2025 race but were not accepted, you have the opportunity to win an entry from iFIT.

How it works

We will be giving 10 qualified runners the opportunity to cross the 2025 Boston Marathon® finish line with Team iFIT.  Not only will runners get a chance to run and join Team iFIT, but they will also receive a custom iFIT training guide and mentorship from two iFIT Trainers.  

What we are looking for:

• Vertical videos no longer than 3 minutes long that tell a compelling story about why you want to join Team iFIT for the 2025 Boston Marathon®.
• You can include friends and family to help tell your story.  We encourage you to include photos and additional video clips you feel would help add to your story.
•  Tag @iFIT and use #TeamiFIT and #iFITMarathonOpportunity in your video. 

Questions and prompts to consider when creating your video:

• Tell us why you would make a great member of Team iFIT. 
• Tell us your inspirational story, why we should select you, and what makes you stand out from the crowd. 
• What would crossing the Boston Marathon® finish line mean to you? 
• Imagine your support team is meeting you at the finish line, what would you tell them?
• Describe your past experience(s) with distance running — including marathons, 5K/10K, running clubs, or other activities to demonstrate your readiness.
• How has iFIT, ProForm, or NordicTrack played a role in your fitness regimen?
