Hundreds run to remember

By Zack Teibloom · Monday, Oct. 23,2006 7:28 a.m.

The seventh annual Jill Behrman Run for the End Zone brought out about 1,300 runners, many of whom had a connection to the family, on Saturday's brisk and sunny morning. Many in attendance were quick to bring up the ongoing trial, which provided an extra incentive and desire to remember Jill. The event, which began and ended in the John Mellencamp Pavilion Saturday, included a 5-kilometer run and walk and a 1-mile walk, as well as a number of informative booths. The high turnout and diverse group of runners -- the youngest was four, the oldest was 85, made race planners proud. "It's like that first year with the community coming together for the family to show their support," said Chris Geary, director of programming and research for Recreational Sports. Proceeds for this year's run will be donated to the Jill Behrman Emerging Leader Scholarship and Jill's House, the recently approved temporary home for families of patients receiving care at the Midwest Proton Radiotherapy Institute in Bloomington.
