The 2015 Knoxville Cancer Relay continues today as runners traverse the 5-mile loop that starts at Ken Locke Stadium.
Knoxville Mayor and organizer Brian Hatch encourages people to join them in the run as they look to raise money for Knoxville Coaches vs Cancer. Last year, the group ran across the state of Iowa along Highway 92 and raised over $17,000.
The KNIA/KRLS Big Red Radio will be providing music and making announcements throughout the event.
The 2015 Knoxville Cancer Relay will conclude just prior to the start of the Panthers football game against Pella.
A video of the start of the relay is available here.
