The Cambridge Half starts and finishes at CambridgeSide. The course is a flat loop on the Charles. You can see a runner twice without a car.
CambridgeSide
The mall side of the finish is the base. A walk across the river and back is the second look. Memorial Drive is closed. Do not try to drive it.
- Base: CambridgeSide, off the course.
- Second look: the bridge loop, on foot.
- Halloween weekend. Costumes are common. Leave a gap for runners.
Getting there
Red Line to Kendall or Charles, then a walk. Other Massachusetts half marathons are not this tight to the river.
