Since its founding in 1962 by Sara Mae and Larry Berman, the Cambridge Sports Union has been one of New England's premier athletic clubs. The 250 women and men who make up the club range in experience and ability from beginners to nationally competitive athletes.

The running section organizes regular workouts for its members, coordinates team racing activities, and puts on a number of social events throughout the year. For those who are either new to the running scene or the New England area, CSU's friendly, collegial style fosters an excellent environment in which to meet training partners with similar goals and abilities.

March 30th @ 8:00am --- Group Fun Run is the Annual CSU SOUP Run from Hopkinton to Newton 
What is the Soup Run?

The Soup Run is one of CSU's longer traditions (both in distance run and years held).

It is an opportunity to run the first 18-20 miles of the Boston Marathon course with support along the way (you'll have to manufacture the cheering crowds in your mind). Runners will be carpooled to the marathon start in Hopkinton and follow the route back to Newton. Water and support will be supplied along the way. If you wish to drink something other than water, please bring your desired sports drink (and we will hand it out to you, if you like). Those wishing to run a shorter distance are welcome to run (but please be flexible with the car-pooling/pick-up arrangements). Depending on the weather, bring "layers" for the run (we will collect cast-offs). And be sure to bring a towel and warm, dry clothing to change in to after the run.

Lastly, please bring a food item to share after the run. Warm casseroles/soups and/or baked goods are encouraged.

Can't or don't want to run? Drivers and support crew needed!
If you would like to help transport runners to the start, or provide a car that seats 5 or more passengers, we would love to hear from you -- your help is needed!

CSU Soup Run Details & RSVP
Sunday, March 30, 8:00 AM sharp! (we would like to send out car pools at 8:15)
Hosts: Pat Robinson & Henry Finch

Please RSVP for more information on location and so the hosts can get a head count for car-pooling pat@csurun.org
