Hi Arthur,
Thank you for your interest. We usually meet on Saturday mornings in Boston/Cambridge for our long runs and then we will have other workouts in the Greater Boston area during the week depending on athletes’ schedules. Our club president Ed is usually around on our Saturday workouts to discuss technique and club involvement. You welcome to join us if that works for you. Please let us know your thoughts at the present.
