UNP’s running (and walking) team, Footnotes, participated in the Lincoln Track Club’s Spring Forward on Saturday, March 21. The 10-Mile, 5k and 1-Mile races began near the Lincoln Zoo.

This year marks Footnotes’ fifth attendance at the Lincoln Track Club’s Spring Forward Race (1-mile, 5k and 10-mile) since reviving the running and walking team! We lined up in front of the Lincoln Children’s Zoo on Saturday, March 21, and enjoyed an unusually beautiful morning together. This was the start of sunny, manageable days in March for Nebraska, which we were grateful for at 8:00am.

Bridget, Bolor, Taylor G., Rosemary, and Tish represented the Press this year. Tish conquered the 10-mile while the rest of us held up the 5k jaunt. We all received a bright blue Spring Forward long sleeve t-shirt which was perfect to throw on after the race—and to wear on future running excursions! Outfits were complete with Jane’s generous holiday gift to everyone of athletic socks.
