MTSU’s Campus Recreation Center, in partnership with the Blue Raider Men’s Rugby Team, hosted a “Run For Your Life” five-kilometer Halloween-themed footrace on Sunday to raise money for student worker scholarships.
The race was open to runners of all ages, and awards were given for best costume, as well as fastest finishing time for each gender in two age groups.
