Welcome to the website of the Somerville Road Runners, Somerville Massachusetts' oldest running club. Bordering Boston and Cambridge, we're a motley crew that works hard, but doesn't let that get in the way of having a good time. SRR is a charitable, non-profit organization that sponsors many events a year including weekly runs, track workouts, annual races and even competitive but delicious cook-offs! Our club welcomes new members of all abilities. Read on to find out what we've been up to lately.
SRR Annual Event: 26x1 Challenge Cup Relay
When: Saturday June 22 @ 8AM
Where: Tufts University Track (map)
Cambridge Running Club were champions of the Challenge Cup 2012 (the prestigious symbol of the fastest running club in New England!) and they're ready to defend their crown. Somerville Road Runners, the previous holders of the title, are eager to get on the track and win it back. Can your running club beat CRC? (2:17:44) It will take 26 of your finest and fittest runners.
