A run consisting of running extending from campus up Luce and Notch Roads all the way to the summit of Mt. Greylock. And and then running back down returning to campus the same way. The total mileage is 24-25 miles. The run has now been completed six timesby [[Jono Dowse '06]], the chief proponent of the THE Greylock Run.
The first time Jono ran this route, he expected it to be about half its actual length, based on a terrible, terrible underestimation from looking cursorily at the [[North Berkshire Trails map]] provided by the [http://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php/Williams_Outing_Club WOC]. As the time wore on past 2 hours before he reached the summit, he began to get suspicious. Having finally conquered the summit and slogged back down the route almost totally exhausted, Jono arrived back on campus after nightfall. He missed dinner entirely. Two days later, he set out on his WOOLF trip and for the next three days hiked a route with shorter total mileage than he had run on the one day.
