Itching to summit something before the weekend? Join us for a chatty autumn evening run to meet new people, enjoy pretty views of Cambridge and the Boston skyline, and eat some pizza!
We will depart from the MIT student center at 5:30pm on a ~6 mile route that will cross the Charles River, head up Summit Avenue in Brookline, pause at the top of Corey Hill to soak in some views, and then come back to Cambridge Pizzeria for dinner ($10/person covered by MITOC).
Prerequisites
This will be a no-drop run (we’ll run at a pace that’s comfortable for everyone and happily adapt as needed!), but as a rough guideline, you should currently be comfortable running 4-5 miles (flat road) at a 9-10 min/mi pace. Please don't hesitate to reach out to the trip leaders with any questions or concerns about whether this run would be a good fit for you!
This trip is part of MITOC’s back-to-school initiative – anyone is welcome to sign up, but priority will be given to MIT students, especially those new to MITOC!
If the trip shows as full, please still add yourself to the wait list!
