Haslet was a spectator at the finish line of the race on April 15, 2013, when two bombs went off in a terrorist attempt that claimed three lives. "I felt the direct impact and it immediately blew off (part of) my left foot," she said. Surgeons amputated the leg below the knee.

She said then that she never wants to be pitied or to be called a victim of the people who carried out the Boston bombings. Adrianne Haslet "A victim ... means that I somehow belong to somebody or I'm suffering because of him and I'm not suffering. I'm thriving," she said. "I am a survivor."

She had not been a runner prior to the bombing, but completed the Boston Marathon in 2016 and was training for this year's race when the accident occurred Saturday night.
