While the Big Ten Hoops Day 5K is a wonderful event for Big Ten fans and the local Indianapolis community to take part in, the Indiana Sports Corporation and the Big Ten Local Organizing Committee have gone the extra step to involve the area youth.As part of the Youth Initiative of the Big Ten Hoops Day 5K, nearly 150 youth participants ran an abbreviated 1.2-mile course (as part of 5K course) Sunday to complete their Marathon in 51 Days.
More than 2,500 youth have participated in the program, which calls for running a half mile daily either at school or on their own over the course of 50 days.
