HLS Running Club
The HLS Running Club is a group of student runners of all ability levels.
The Cambridge area offers many scenic runs on roads and trails and is a wonderful place to start running or continue training for your next big event. We welcome all students to run with us - whether you're looking to stretch your legs after a long day of class and studying, or are training for your next marathon.
Weekly Runs
The club organizes two runs each week, leaving from campus in the late afternoon. These runs are low-key and are a great way to meet new people and explore new running routes around campus. Pace and distance vary depending on who shows up to each run. New runners are always welcome! Join our email list to get the weekly schedule.*** First runs of 08-09 will be on the following Fridays, leaving from the main (south) entrance of the Hark at 4:00 PM: 09/05/08, 09/12/08 and
09/18/08 ***
Weekend Long Runs
The club typically has a few members training for fall and spring marathons. These runners often plan to do their long runs together on the weekends. Email us for more information.
Races
The club keeps all members on our email list informed of local races, ranging from Harvard sponsored 5ks to the Boston Marathon. We plan to travel as a club to several races this year, including the Boston Athletic Association Franklin Park 5k in October.
Social Events
Several times each semester, the club gathers after a run for pizza and beer at a spot close to campus. Come meet us, even if you can't make the run!*** First social event of 08-09 will be after the group run on Friday, September 18th. Check back for details. ***
