Welcome to the website of the Shamrock Running Club, Woburn Massachusetts’ oldest running club.
We are a non-profit charitable organization that enjoys working out , racing and celebrating.
Our club has runners of all abilities and experiences. If you are new to running, biking or swimming and live in the Woburn area, joins us at any of the many workout locations.
Our annual run from Concord Center to the Nagog Hill Tower. One of the hilliest training runs we do all year. More elevation gain than Boston and double Stus 30K elevation gain 😉
Just follow the Shamrock lined road! Many thanks to Damaris, Linda and Rob's kids for running the water/food stop at mile 4.5. It was so nice of them to give up their Saturday morning to support us.
We had a great turnout for today's "Ideal Conditions 30k" (or thereabouts) up Nagog Hill Rd. Conditions really were ideal!!
Special thanks to Andy Merlino for marking the route (I loved seeing those little green Shamrocks!) and dropping water at the turn-around.
And extra special thanks to Madame President Damaris, Linda Jennings, and the Haig family for the well-stocked water stop!! That was a life-saver at Mile 16!!!
Good morning, Shamrocks! A couple of important highlights from the newsletter:
- Reminder: there will be NO indoor track at the Joyce this week due to school vacation.
- Save the correct, REALLY correct date for our club collaboration with the Mystics at Lake Q: Wednesday, April 17!!
- Lots of great options for those needing to do long runs this weekend. For you early birds: Woburn Library at 5:15 for 16 (with a loop back to the library at 6am). For the beauty sleepers: Keyes lot in Concord at 8am for a 30k out and back to Nagog Hill. All are welcome: feel free to modify the length to fit your training schedule. There will be a Shamrock water stop/snack table at the top of Strawberry Hill. Thanks in advance to the Shamrocks and their families manning the stop! (If you would like a map/directions in advance, please contact Mary Emerson or Andy Merlino.
Happy running!!
