Our Hope
Since TARC was formed in 1994, the goal has always been simple: bring people together to run on trails. Our group runs have been a key component of achieving that goal through the years.
We currently have monthly group runs in both Blue Hills Reservation in Milton, Massachusetts and Great Brook Farm State Park in Carlisle, Massachusetts, led by our Outreach team. Some impromptu runs in other locations around Massachusetts are also added throughout the year, as part of TARC on Tour!
​
If you’ve ever been curious about running trails but didn’t know where to start, come and let us show you the way. If you’re a seasoned trail veteran simply looking to run with others, we’re here for you, too. All are welcome!
​
We always embody the same “No Animal Left Behind” philosophy that the club has embraced since its founding, and we welcome you to join us. It’s free; it’s fun; and you’ll make some good friends along the way. "No Animal Left Behind" is our fun way of saying that we aim to accommodate all paces and abilities, with flexible distance options for each run, and group leaders who will make sure to regroup at all trail intersections as needed to keep the pack together!
