(From the CRWA) Every year since 1983, in partnership with Paddle Boston, Charles River Watershed Association hosts hundreds of kayakers, canoers, and stand-up paddle boarders for the beloved Run of the Charles.

Held on the last Sunday of April, racers choose between four courses (3-mile, 6-mile, 9-mile, or 14-mile relay) before joining the finish line festivities at the Finish Line RiverFest for food trucks, a beer garden, live music, and more!
