Glad to see a portion of our Wellesley College tuition (oh yeah, we don’t actually go to school there) is going to a good cause: renovation of the track.

It’s true that the track has become a tad chewed up in spots, and the college also will strive to make the area more accessible and improve spectator facilities.

There’s nothing better than a fresh track surface to make slowpokes gain a bit of spring in their steps, and you can look forward to the project wrapping up in mid-August if plans go according to schedule.

In the meantime, you can head over to the Wellesley High track, which was refurbished in 2016, if you’re looking for an outdoor track alternative.
