Howdy, I've been looking for run clubs near the Charlestown/East Cambridge/South Somerville area. I know there are some previous posts, but thought I'd make a new one for a 2026 update!

From googling, I can see there's a somerville run club, davis square one... any others I'm missing?

For context I'm not a fast/competitive runner, but have always enjoyed running with people. I'm in my late 30s now so also not looking for one centered around alcohol... though if there is one, I might still check it out, lol

Hey all, visiting Europe in a couple months. Looking for travel sling recommendations. I usually carry a 1.5L sling (standard offbrand crossbody) for phone/wallet/keys (pocket relief), sunglasses, chapstick, sunscreen. However, going a longer trip, I feel I'm going to want to carry a phone charger, perhaps water bottle (still undecided), backup cash/card as appropriate, and perhaps room for room for small souvenirs (trinket, museum fliers, etc, nothing fancy).

I have a alpaka metro crossbody that I use for flying, and that's my current plan, but I feel it's perhaps a tad too big for a sling. Plus, I feel it might make me stand out to pickpockets. I generally like the more vertical look, but the fanny pack look is fine as well. Any suggestions for something that is in the middle of those two would be great!
