Springfield, MA

Springfield sits on the Connecticut River with dead-flat terrain ideal for distance running and cycling — the Outrun Hunger 5K and 15th Annual FBRTC 5K Trail Race anchor the local running calendar. Cyclists dominate here: the Ride-to-Remember 75-mile loop to Hartford and the Great River Ride Century both use the river corridor and gentle western Massachusetts valleys, with rolling terrain ramping up toward the Berkshires 50km northwest. The Springfield All Neighborhood Ride stays local on flat valley roads, making this a natural hub for long-distance brevets and touring riders.
