The Cambridge CityRun 5-Mile Road Race and Henrietta’s 3-Mile Fun Walk is a popular rite of spring that attracts over 1,200 runners and walkers annually and has been named one of the top 75 road races in New England by the prestigious New England Runner magazine.  Two miles in, this scenic, flat, tree-lined course runs along the perimeter of the Fresh Pond Reservoir - away from cars and distractions.  The race has been measured and certified by the officials at the U.S.A.T.F. Thanks to our sponsors, proceeds from the event will benefit Friends of Cambridge Athletics (FOCA), the Andrea Harvey Memorial Fund and the Recreation Division Cambridge Program.  To participate, visit www.marathonsports.com.  To volunteer, contact Paul Ryder at 617-349- 6229 or pryder@cambridgema.gov.
