LRC Exclusive: Boston Bingo Was Won Atop Heartbreak Hill
by LetsRun.com
April 19, 2016
This year may have been the 120th Boston Marathon, but it was the first year of LetsRun.com’s Boston Bingo.
We created a Boston Bingo Card and invited you all to play from home. The first 10 Boston Bingo winners received a free LetsRun.com shirt.
Well with three different TV broadcasts, we gave up on trying to figure out when the first Boston Bingo was possible. Thankfully winner Aditi K, who’s at Stanford, emailed us a detailed timeline of his Bingo and he got it at 11:25 a.m. Eastern when the runners hit “Heartbreak Hill.” (His detailed explanation is below).
Boston Bingo was possible multiple ways as you can see from some of the winning cards below.
Owen S, a high schooler from Concord, Mass., went the southern route watching the local TV broadcast:
