Music, cheers and spandex filled the parking lot of Memorial Stadium on Saturday as runners prepared for the big race. IU's Circle of Life hosted its third annual Mini Marathon and 5K run and walk to help raise money for the Bill Z. Littlefield Scholarship for Survivors, an award given to cancer survivors.
Littlefield was a senior lecturer in the Kelley School of Business who died of cancer in the summer of 2005.
President and Chief Executive Officer for Circle of Life Sean Keegan MacCauley said just more than 1,500 runners showed up.
"I am extremely pleased," he said. "We only had 89 days to get the race off the ground with the transition from fall to spring. Now we have a whole year to prepare for the next race."
