About the Data Run 5K

This is a fundraising race put on by a University of Georgia obesity research program, with proceeds going toward graduate student scholarships and investigator funding. The course details are not something the organizers spelled out, but the event is campus-connected and open to runners, walkers, and anyone who wants to show up and support the cause.
