The RATT was created by the ARE in 2005 as a magazine devoted to bringing a light and humorous approach to a sport that is plagued with drug scandals and pasta-fiends, 15 minute milers to 15 minute 5kers, and a demographic more varied than the patrons of the Italian American Community Center on Washington Avenue.

In short, our aim is not a deep education but rather, a deep edutainment through which you can enjoy the stories and columns written mainly by a bunch of runners who barely got through high school english.

After a two year hiatus, the RATT returned in the spring of 2008 and is here to stay! Read the latest issue to know what's going on in the club today. Read past issues to know what the club was like as a baby. It's all here and it's all for you!
