                  And like many businesses, Bolton struggled throughout the height of the pandemic.

                  “The pandemic was tough, from March to May, and came back to a different downtown.”

                  Bolton is pleased to see people ahead of the Blue Ridge Marathon because it helps her business.

                  “I’m excited to say this week has been a great week butted to just a lot of positive energy coming into the marathon.”

                  As of now about 3,000 runners from 43 states and five countries are expected to run.

                  “What I’m really excited about is to seeing all the people who have never been to Roanoke before to come and check out the race, ” Kate Pedigo, Blue Ridge Race organizer said.

                  Catherine Fox with Visit Virginia Blue Ridge says the race and the concerts help advertise what exactly the Star City and Roanoke Valley have to offer.

                  “We kind of feel like everything is in bloom,” Fox said

                  Officials say there was a major economic boost to the regional economy, about $1,600,000

                  “When they see it, it’s the way that we are able to showcase a region that people have not seen before and will attempt to come back, spend more time here”
