Welcome to CSU!

The Cambridge Sports Union is one of the Boston area's premier running, skiing and orienteering athletic clubs boasting members from all corners of greater Boston, Massachusetts and beyond. CSU's running section hosts training runs throughout the year in Boston area locations including the Commonwealth Avenue stretch of the Boston Marathon course, Boston University's indoor track, Fresh Pond in Cambridge and the trails of Walden Pond and the historic Battle Road. CSU members participate in a variety of races including the New England Grand Prix series championships, Pub Series, Mt. Washington Road Race and the Boston Marathon among many offerings that make Boston a running Mecca(!?).

Come share in the combined 'centuries of running wisdom' Cambridge Sports Union members have to offer by joining us at a workout!

Group Run 2/7 - Super Sunday Pancake Run!!!

Will you be an “all-day” couch potato watching the Super Bowl? No
way! . . . Join your CSU friends Super Sunday morning for a long run.
The running route (10 - XX miles) is up for discussion and easily can
be along the Comm Ave. marathon route (for those who have not had
enough of it already).  Starting point is in Waban near the green line stop.
In CSU tradition, please bring a drink or snack to share that
compliments pancakes.
Run starts at 9:00am sharp!

For more information and to RSVP by Saturday to cat@csurun.org.

Barefoot Running in the Globe

barefoot
The globe picked up the barefoot trend with an article last week. I’ve also included links to a Runner’s World debate and a blog by local podiatrist and runner Dr. Chasen. A fad revisited or the key to healthy happy feet?, you decide!
