Thursday Night Casey’s Run
(formerly known as the "Khoury's, Thursday Night 4.13 Miler")
Join us every Thursday night at 7:15pm for the 4.06 mile run that started SRR!
Meet us at the start at the corner of Melvin St and Broadway in East Somerville by 7:15 p.m.
All runners must sign the weekly waiver which will be posted to our email list and Facebook page in advance.
All paces welcome! Come run with us!
Don’t forget to wear your reflective gear.
Notes:
If you would like to leave a bag (or just wait inside) meet in Casey's at 173 Broadway Somerville, MA around 7 p.m. It's a 5 minute walk to the start from there. Bags and other personal items will not be supervised.
Anyone who would like to hang out afterward is welcome to return to Casey's. Food and drink purchases will be up to individuals.
The Thursday night run used to be a timed run (some would call it a “race”), but times have changed and Strava has largely obviated the desire for that service. Historical results can be viewed on the Casey’s results page.
Speed + Winter Hill = Roadkill
Storm Through Somerville
It may be snowing. It may be raining. A revolution may be flowing through the streets. The SRR Thursday Night Run will happen every week at 7:15 pm (leave the bar at 7:08 pm), no matter what! Wanna run it? Great! It's FREE! You can check out the official course route as well as the artist's rendition of the course and find a map to the start a map to Casey's.
