Boston Marathon Tragedy Inspires Steward Physical Therapist to Serve Runners

Since 2016, Eli Harris, PT, DPT, SCS, has volunteered at the finish line medical tent

Ten years ago, Physical Therapist Eli Harris, PT, DPT, SCS, passed on an opportunity to volunteer at the medical tent at the Boston Marathon Finish Line. It was a decision that weighed heavily on him, given the tragic events of the 2013 Boston Marathon. In 2016, a new opportunity presented itself, and every Boston Marathon since, Eli can be found at the finish line helping athletes following their 26.2-mile journey at the world’s oldest annual marathon.
