Not the Rosie Ruiz kind Very Happy

What is good way to get from Manchester, NH airport to downtown BOS? I am staying a 10 min walk from the finish line, near Boston Commons. I have normally rented a car and shared the cost with my running companions. But they're both hurt this year and have withdrawn. I don't want to spend $100 on the car + another $120 to park at the hotel + gas. Any alternatives that you know of?

I found this. An Amtrak train might also be available.

I gather that you may need to take a taxi to get downtown Manchester from the airport to get to the bus, but there may be a shuttle, too.

There may also still be a bus to the commuter line in Woburn. The bus that Diego found is one that I have taken in the past

On another note, I see that Chelsea is running for the ATC team. Awesome addition to the team!

I have an unrelated transportation issue. I'm staying in Medford and have a luxury bus leaving the Park Plaza Hotel at 6Am on race day. The earliest train won't get me there on time, looks like a cab is in order.

I think there is a Greyhound bus that actually stops at the Manchester airport and will take you to South Station in Boston. Not sure of the schedule.
