Tour My Run!Tour My Run!Boston is a runners' city like few others: it's home to the oldest marathon in the world, and you feel it the moment you step outside. At first light the Charles River belongs to the rowers and the joggers, the sun sliding between the Cambridge campuses and the Back Bay skyline. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the Charles River paths and their bridges, the Emerald Necklace green chain drawn by Olmsted all the way to the Arnold Arboretum, the ocean-facing loop of Castle Island in South Boston, the calm circuit around Jamaica Pond, or the paths of Boston Common and the Public Garden right in the heart of downtown. Not a tour bus, not a random jog around your hotel: one hour of running with someone who lives here, at your pace, who knows the right bridges, the right riverside paths and the right tempo.

Consigue la guía gratisYour guide isn't a service provider — they're a Bostonian who loves to run and wants to show you their city. They adjust the pace and distance to your level, pick the route to suit the time of day and the neighbourhood — the Charles River to cruise, the Emerald Necklace for the green, South Boston for the ocean — and share the Boston you won't find in guidebooks. Many of our guides here are running-club members and sports students from the city's campuses, who know their training loops by heart. You leave with a real memory — and often a GPX track to run again on your own.
¿Buscas a alguien que te acompañe en un run en Boston? Un local te espera. En lugar de correr solo por una ciudad que no conoces, te unes a un vecino que ya corre por este terreno: te abre su recorrido, ajusta el ritmo al tuyo y te enseña la ciudad en movimiento.
¿No vienes a por la marca? Muchos guías proponen un run de descubrimiento a ritmo lento: un trote suave, casi al paso, para ver la ciudad sin cruzarla contrarreloj. Paras en los miradores y te tomas el tiempo de mirar: es una forma de descubrir Boston moviéndote con un local, a un ritmo que te deja observarlo todo.
Sí. En TourMyRun, un run lo lidera un local que recibe a un grupo pequeño de corredores: te unes a otras personas, de paso o del lugar, durante un run colectivo, sin tener que correr solo. Es el grupo de un run de TourMyRun —guiado por un vecino—, no un club ni un grupo de fuera.
Public, well-known routes you can run on your own — a solid plan B to get moving right away. But the best of TourMyRun is still discovering them with a local who takes you, at your pace.
The great classic: run the Dr. Paul Dudley White Path on the Boston side, cross a bridge and come back on the Cambridge side. The Harvard–Longfellow loop is ~2.8 miles; chain the bridges (BU Bridge, River Street, Eliot) to stretch it to 5, 8 or 14 miles. Flat, car-free, skylines on both sides.
Start : Charles River Esplanade, around Back Bay (Boston)
Olmsted's chain of parks threaded end to end: the Fens, the Riverway, Olmsted Park, Jamaica Pond, then the Arnold Arboretum. Almost all green, mostly flat, a nature escape in the heart of the city. Run it one-way (~5 mi to Jamaica Pond) or push on to the Arboretum.
Start : Back Bay Fens, near the Museum of Fine Arts (Fenway)
A flat loop around Pleasure Bay linking Castle Island to the mainland by a causeway, facing Boston Harbor and the ocean. You pass the foot of Fort Independence. Wide, breezy, ideal at sunrise; stack laps for distance.
Start : Castle Island / Pleasure Bay Beach, South Boston
The circuit around the pond on a rolling, shaded path, one of the links of the Emerald Necklace. A short, safe loop, perfect to repeat; a 5 km parkrun is run here every Saturday.
Start : Jamaica Pond boathouse, Jamaica Plain
Your guide is a passionate amateur, not a professional. They are not paid: what you pay covers the organisation and a contribution towards the costs they incur — never a wage, never a service contract. It's a run between runners, not a ticketed tour.
Your guide will point you the right way. The Charles River for flat, rolling paths and skylines; the Emerald Necklace for green and quiet; Castle Island for the ocean; Jamaica Pond for a short, easy loop. Each listing shows the location, distance and pace.
Usually around 1 hour, but it depends on the run you pick — each listing shows distance, duration and pace.
Yes. Boston guides often offer sunrise and weekday slots — ideal before a day of sightseeing or meetings, when the Charles River and the parks are still quiet.
Absolutely. If you know your routes by heart and enjoy running with others, you can offer your runs and choose your slots. It's voluntary: your costs are covered, never a wage.
