The fifth-annual Nebraska Football Uplifting Athletes Road Race will take place on Sunday, July 16. The one-mile fun run begins at 8 a.m. and the 5K run will follow, with an estimated start time of 8:30 a.m. Both races will start and finish on Stadium Drive just outside the west side of Memorial Stadium.
"The race is a great event for people to come to in order to help kids and families that have been through unimaginable circumstances," senior linebacker and president of Nebraska's Uplifting Athletes chapter Chris Weber said. "As a football team, this event allows us to get outside of ourselves and use our platform to help people in need.
