Live updates from the Boston Marathon course will be heard on the region’s most popular sports radio station for years to come.

98.5 The Sports Hub’s Beasley Media Group Boston has struck a multi-year deal with the Boston Athletic Association, the station announced on Tuesday.

The Sports Hub will broadcast live from Hopkinton along with Country 102.5 next month, and the voice of the 98.5 Patriots Radio Network, Bob Socci, will provide updates from the marathon course.

“We are honored to partner with the BAA and The Boston Marathon, which are world renown Boston institutions,” said Mary Menna, Beasley Media Group Boston’s VP and market manager.

Kicking off the marathon will be Country 102.5’s morning show host, Boston native Ayla Brown, singing the National Anthem.
