This 5k is put on by a medical student organization at Texas State University, in partnership with a nonprofit focused on bone marrow and stem cell donation. The course runs through campus. The cause is specific: raising awareness and growing the donor registry for people with blood cancers, leukemia and lymphoma among them. The pace and the crowd skew toward the purposeful rather than the fast.
