Cancer challenge raises money through exercise

At the 4th annual Coach Hep Indiana Cancer Challenge on Saturday, participants will run, walk and bike in support of cancer research. The fundraising challenge is in honor of former IU football coach Terry Hoeppner, who died in 2007 of complications from
a brain tumor.

The event includes a 2K walk, a 5K run, 25K, 50K and 100K bicycle routes and an ice cream social sponsored by Hartzell’s Ice Cream. Registration for the event is $35 for adults 16 and older, $15 for children ages 6 to 15 and free for children 5
and younger.

Registration is available online until midnight Thursday at http://www.coachhepcancerchallenge.org/.

Proceeds benefit the Hoosier Oncology Group and the IU Simon Cancer Center.
