He is also actively involved in the media promotion of running events such as the Boston and New York City Marathons. Coach Treseler brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to CRC. As an example, his emphasis on heart rate-based training has proved to be particularly popular and successful with our members. You can reach Fred via email at tracs@earthlink.net Our Assistant Coach Russ Brennen brings two decades of running experience to the CRC.  A competitive runner since the fourth grade, Russ competed in both high school and college.  At RIT (in New York), Russ ran indoor and outdoor track and cross-country.  Unfortunately, during the prime of his collegiate career Russ suffered a serious injury and was "stopped short of fulfulling any goals" he had for his competitive running career.  Although he eventually recovered the ability to run, he was never able to regain the speed he once had. Russ has never let running leave his life. For the past two years he has been one of the three coaches in the Boston Running Club. Russ enjoyed much success coaching with the BRC leading the 2000 women's open team to a strong finish in X-C Club Nationals. Russ looks forward to working with the Cambridge Running Club as a "chance to meet, coach and possibly inspire an enthusiastic group of runners." Russ enjoys working with members at every level and hopes he can transfer some of his knowledge, experience, and competitive spirit to them.  At each workout he "seeks to establish a strong relationship with the runners and to improve their running as much as possible". Russ works as a graphics design professional.  He lives in Framingham.
