The IU Campus Recreational Sports has been organizing the Run for the End Zone 5K Run and 5K Walk since 1996. Before that, it was offered as a student only, cross country meet at the IU Cross Country Course. As the event expanded, Campus Recreational Sports decided to organize a road race instead that would involve everyone in the IU and Bloomington communities. Thus, the Run for the End Zone was born, beginning and ending in an IU football end zone (just for the fun of it)!

Now, in honor of Jill Behrman, a former IU student and employee of Recreational Sports, Campus Recreational Sports has joined with the greater community in organizing the annual Jill Behrman Run for the End Zone 5K Run/Walk and One Mile Fun Walk. Proceeds from this event will benefit the Jill Behrman Emerging Leader Scholarship and Jill’s House.

The Jill Behrman Emerging Leader Scholarship is offered by Campus Recreational Sports and Eric and Marilyn Behrman and is open to undergraduate students who exhibit leadership potential and abilities, character and ethical values through their involvement in Recreational Sports, and the University and community organizations. Jill's House provides a temporary, homelike residence for patients undergoing outpatient cancer treatment at the Midwest Proton Radiotherapy Institute facility in Bloomington.

Please participate or volunteer your time to help at the Jill Behrman Run for the End Zone 5K Run/Walk or One Mile Fun Walk on October 13, 2007. THANK YOU!
