University Beat: Lace It Up for "Miles for Moffitt"

Moffitt Cancer Center

It’s time once again to lace up your running shoes, as Miles for Moffitt is coming up at USF on May 12th. This week’s University Beat on WUSF 89.7 has a preview of the event, which has raised over 800-thousand dollars for research at Moffitt Cancer Center.

A record crowd is expected at the USF Tampa campus to take part in the 1, 3.1 and 5 mile walks and runs. There will also be a kid's dash and a ceremony honoring cancer survivors.

Online registration closes Sunday, May 6th at midnight, and entry fees increase on Monday the 7th.
