Let's sleep in on Saturday and then do a 10k trail run in Middlesex Fells! This will be a good chance to work on your layering system while running since it's going to be a cold day (about 5F).

This trip is for you if:

• You're a fair-weather runner who's done 0 or more winter hikes and curious what winter (trail) running is like.

• You're an all-weather runner who wants to try some trail running

• You're an experienced all-weather runner who just wants to do some runs with friends.

The trip will run from 10:30 and take no more than two hours.

This will be a "no-drop" trip meaning we won't run any faster than the slowest person can go. As such, we have a single prerequisite to ensure that the group can stay together and adequately plan layers (we'd want to wear more layers if walking).

Prerequisite:

• You must have run at least 10k within 75 minutes in the last 6 months.

Feel free to reach out if you are concerned if this trip is for you! Given the cold, we want to ensure we'll be moving at a constant, continuous pace so we don't freeze in our running layers.

After we see who's made it on to the trip, we'll decide if we want to run on more technical trails or stick to the easier ones.

~Depending on the number of signups, we may split this trip into two and have a faster and slower group. A decision will made before the lottery runs.~
