Best running routes in the city?

The esplanade

Find your way onto it and can make a running loop using the bridges of whatever length you want!

Charles river

I love running along the charles, looping from the cambridge side to the boston side and back-it can be busy at certain times but you can decide how long you want your run to be and there’s great scenery!

Jamaica pond and the emerald necklace
