Ladies and Gents, get keen for the first race of the year, the Freshers' Fun Run!
This is always our best attended event of the year, and a brilliant way to get involved with Cambridge running whatever your standard. This is a great opportunity to meet other runners throughout the university, ignite fierce college rivalries and even win some prizes - including prizes for the first three fresher men and women back. Afterwards there will be refreshments and a chance to learn a bit more about the running club.
Both men's and women's races start from the athletics track at Wilberforce Road. All runners head along Wilberforce Road before turning left along Madingley Road, then turning left to go through the Cavendish site, then turning left along the cycle track which takes them back to Wilberforce Road. The men complete two of these laps whereas women complete just one.
This run usually attracts all standards of runners and is brilliant for anyone considering doing cross country. The race has no hills and is all on tarmac.

Anyone can run in a college league race (including guests) but to count towards the scoring you need to be an actual member of a college (which includes current students and staff). Don't forget that large college teams score extra points for the additional runners so it pays to have a good turnout. See the college league rules for more details. Current league standings are here.
The route is available as a PDF file, and also as a Google Earth file.
