Embrace the winter chill and join the Somerville Road Runners for their iconic SRR Thursday Night 4.06 Miler on January 29, 2026, in Somerville, MA. This weekly tradition, a foundational event for the SRR club, offers a challenging yet welcoming 4.1-mile experience for all paces. Runners gather at Casey's at 173 Broadway before heading to the start at the corner of Melvin Street and Broadway. Expect an urban course, which notably includes the ascent of Winter Hill, providing a dynamic and engaging run through the heart of Somerville.

The SRR Thursday Night 4.06 Miler is renowned for its steadfast dedication, happening every Thursday night at 7:15 PM, "no matter what" the conditions. This means you can anticipate typical race day conditions around 37F for the high and 23F for the low, with about a 15% chance of precipitation, truly embodying the spirit of a dedicated running community. While once a timed "race," it has evolved into a beloved social run, though historical results are still available for those keen to track their progress. The emphasis remains on community and consistent running, with reflective gear required for safety in the evening hours, and the club even provides some vests.

What truly sets this event apart is its vibrant, inclusive atmosphere and its role as a club cornerstone. All runners are welcome, provided they can complete the course within 60 minutes, fostering a supportive environment for runners of various skill levels. After tackling the 4.06 miles, participants often return to Casey's for post-run camaraderie, making it more than just a run—it's a weekly gathering that celebrates fitness and community in Somerville.
