Who We Are
Cambridge Running Club is a USATF-certified running club based in Cambridge, MA.
We have a wide range of runners from those who ran competitively in college to those who picked up the sport recently – but are unified in their love for the sport and their desire to reach personal running goals.
The club provides two regularly scheduled runs per week: a coach-led track workout on Thursday evening and member-hosted long runs on Saturday morning. Aside from organized runs, many of our members have been running together for years and we regularly organize social events, ranging from annual holiday parties to camping trips to the White Mountains.

What We Do
Thursday Night Track Workout
Every Thursday, CRC meets at the track for a workout led by our coach. The pace is determined by your personal 5K time and we encourage people to form pace groups instead of doing the workout alone.
Saturday Morning Long Run
Every Saturday, a CRC member hosts a long run from their homes. The route is different every week but the water stops and post-run brunches are always provided by the host.
Race
CRC competes in the USATF New England Grand Prix where runners are eligible to score points for the club. We also regularly participate in local races around Boston, Cambridge, and Somerville area. In recent years, we have stretched into cross country and mountain races.
Volunteering
Volunteering is an integral part of CRC to give back to the community that offer us a place to run in. We are regular participants at the Boston Marathon Expo, Charles River Cleanup, and Christmas in the City.
Social
We don’t always see each other in athletic wear! Throughout the year, CRC hosts a number of social events to make new friends and celebrate our lives outside of running. Our events include mixers, potlucks, BBQ, White Mountains camping trip, and holiday party.
