More than 500 people participated in the fourth annual Take Steps for Kids 5K race, a student-run fundraiser Saturday. The race raised over $8,000, almost twice what it raised last year. Take Steps for Kids 5K is the largest student-run 5K in Missouri.

With Brookings Hall as the backdrop, 184 runners, walkers and even a dog began a five-kilometer run through campus in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Eastern Missouri. Started just last year, the now-annual Take Steps for Kids is fast becoming a tradition at Washington University. Over $3,750 was raised for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Eastern Missouri in the event organized by the Washington University Running Club.
