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.

Congratulations to 2006 CSU Hall of Fame Inductees! 
Congratulations to Pat Robinson and Henry Finch, who were inducted into the Cambridge Sports Union Hall of Fame on Saturday, December 2, at the CSU 2006 Recognition Party.

Pat and Henry have been members of CSU for over 20 years, and have contributed to the Club in countless ways. Pat is the longtime Treasurer of the Club, and for years has provided inspiration and informal coaching to women in the Club. She is also an accomplished runner in her own right; in 1980 she won the Ocean State Marathon in 2:46, and more recently she placed 2nd in the Seniors Division at the USATF New England Cross Country Championships 6K at Franklin Park. Henry began his running career as a hurdler, then became an accomplished road, track, and cross-country runner. They have two sons who are also outstanding athletes and runners. Pat and Henry have generously hosted countless CSU events at their home, including the always popular "CSU Soup Run," which takes place in March each year and follows the Boston Marathon course from Hopkinton to Mile 18 and beyond.

Pat and Henry join prior-year inductees Larry and Sara Mae Berman (co-founders of the Club), former Olympian Eleonoro Mendonca, and running community stalwart Duke Hutchinson in the CSU Hall of Fame. In tribute to their years of service, Pat and Henry received a rousing ovation from Club members and a plaque "in recognition of outstanding service to Cambridge Sports Union and the running community."
