Welcome to Community Running!

We are a fun running club in the Boston-metro area. We offer coached workouts each week and year round. Our workouts are perfect for everybody, regardless of age, experience or ability. Our core membership is made up of "middle-to-back-of-the-pack" runners who run for fun, fitness, and often for a good cause. We currently have about 100 active members and many more who train with us during the indoors season.

We are accessible on the MIT campus track facilities in Cambridge, with ample free parking. We utilize the MIT indoor track during the winter. The MIT Cambridge campus is minutes away from Boston, Somerville, Allston... Community Running members also volunteer together. Learn more about the club and read why you should really run with us! And if you're ready, here are directions to MIT.

Workouts

Mondays: Speed Intervals

Track workout at the MIT outdoor track. We divide into two groups according to speed. We move to the MIT indoor track during the winter. Note: warmup runs still take place outside (about 1.7 miles). Meet us on the ground floor of the Zesiger Sports Center at 7pm.

Wednesdays: Tempo/Hills/Group Runs

These workouts focus on tempo runs, and core and strength training. We move to the MIT indoor track during the winter. Meet us at 7pm on the ground floor of the Zesiger Sports Center.

Saturdays: Long Run

Anywhere between 3 to 20 miles by the Charles River. In the late winter and early spring, these runs alternate between routes along the Charles River and along the Boston Marathon course. Members coordinate to prepare water stops. See our forums for more details.
