Trail Run Field Trip: Middlesex Fells

You don't have to drive to the mountains to find great trails. For our next Trail Run Field Trip, we're staying local and exploring some of the incredible trail running right in our own backyard at Middlesex Fells Reservation!

Just outside Boston, the Fells offers miles of wooded trails, rocky terrain, rolling climbs, and classic New England singletrack. Whether you're brand new to trails, looking to mix up your usual road-running routine, or an experienced trail runner, this is a great opportunity to discover just how much adventure you can find close to home.

We'll take care of the logistics with optional transportation, experienced trail guides, HOKA demos, and lunch after the run. You just need to show up ready to explore!

The Run

This is a trail run, not a race. We'll focus on enjoying the trails, keeping a conversational effort, and making sure everyone has a fun and welcoming experience.

We'll run the Reservoir Trail Loop, following the orange blazes through Middlesex Fells.

Distance: Approximately 5.2 miles
Trail: Reservoir Trail – Orange Blazes

Expect classic New England trail running with rocks, roots, rolling hills, and beautiful wooded scenery. Hiking when needed is always encouraged!

Experienced trail guides will lead and sweep the group so you can focus on running, meeting new people, and enjoying the trails without worrying about getting lost.
