The First Look
Record Challenge
Despite forecasts for nasty weather on
the morning of April 14, the 11th annual
Purdue Challenge 5K Run/Walk enjoyed a
reprieve much to the delight of the record
1,966 participants. Coach Jeff Brohm
served as the honorary chair for a sec-
ond-straight year, and many Boilermaker
athletes, including a dozen football
players, cheered on the runners and
walkers. Participants finished the race
with a party on the Ross-Ade Stadium
field and south end zone patio. More
than $100,000 was raised for the Purdue
Center for Cancer Research.
