Cupid’s Undie Run
Come join other Bostonians as they brave the cold during the Cupid’s Undie Run. Wearing nothing but their underwear, they will take on the nation’s largest pantless excursion for charity. This event, hosted to raise awareness of a genetic disorder, neurofibromatosis (NF), also fundraises for a NF research team, Children’s Tumor Foundation (CTF). The run will commence with drinking and dancing, then participants will jog about a mile, where they await a dance party after the finish line.

Valentine’s Trio
“Join the trio of Cambridge restaurants, Alden & Harlow, The Longfellow Bar, and Waypoint, to celebrate with your significant other or against significant others. At Alden & Harlow, the main dishes that can be enjoyed are the Braised Beef A la Plancha, dressed with smoked scallops, parsnip kimchi, and apple crema. At Waypoint, you will find the perfect couples’ appetizer of Fried Oysters Rockefeller, partnered with a creamed spinach aioli and salmon Roe. To get straight to your significant other’s heart, order the main dish of the Seared A5 Kobe Strip steak, served with Charred Broccoli Hash, a Cured Egg Yolk, and Gravy. And after grabbing dinner at Alden & Harlow or Waypoint, go join fellow holiday-goers at The Longfellow bar where you can sip on Cupid Floats, a Singani-brandy based drink with a citrusy flavor. For those a part of the anti-Valentine’s Day crowd, the It’s Not You, It’s Me, has your name all over it.”
