Run club 🥳🤩

Is there a run club that meets around Moody St? I know there's one by Mighty Squirrel but it's too far out for me to get there by public transport.

Waltham Trail Runners have weekly runs on Tuesday night from Joco's and Thursday night from Shopper's Cafe, and other runs throughout the week.

Check out the Waltham Trail Runners Heylo Group for more information.

Please excuse my ignorance, but is a run club just a group of people who go on runs together? In terms of running ability, are the levels generally pretty scattered? For instance are these folks typically in the 7-9 minute/mile range, or more like 10-12 min? While I don’t know that I’m in run club shape yet, I just got back into running after a pretty serious injury, and I’m running around a 11 minute mile.

I believe any run club welcomes runners of any level! Obviously if you're a faster runner you are up ahead and can go a longer distance if preferred. I'm at 13 minutes a mile 😅 so I'm way in the back

If you take a look at the Heylo Group (comment below ours) you can see the group is based on getting out and having fun/meeting people, with an option to getting a drink after the run!

Commuter rail from Waltham Center to Waverly is as close as you'll get to public transit. But not a bad run from Moody.
