Is the Danehy Park track in Cambridge (MA) open round the clock? I'm going to be in the area and need to do a workout one morning pretty early (off the track by 8.30 at the latest)
If that one is not open, is the Harvard track open to all-comers early in the morning? It's been open most times I've wandered past in fall and winter but never have needed to do a workout on it.
Thanks for any and all helpful replies.
I can't comment on those tracks, but MIT's track is open at that hour.
I'm pretty sure MIT has the "gates" up, so you can only use the outside lanes.
Danehy may not be "open," but I don't think anyone would be there to kick you out.
I'm pretty sure no one at Harvard would care in the least that early in the morning.
I have never been kicked off of either MIT's track or Danehy's track, to my knowledge the Danehy track itself is open all the time. I have been kicked off of the Harvard track.Also keep in mind that Danehy gets extremely windy.
The Tufts track should be open. If you don't want to run there and can't drive, take the Red line to Davis Square, run down college ave to Powderhouse Circle and there you are.
Thanks all for the replies. Much appreciated.
As of this morning, the gates still aren't up on the MIT track. So that should be an option for you.
