Crazylegs Classic notes: Race generates record revenues

Barry Alvarez tried to shake hands with as many runners as he could at the finish line of the Crazylegs Classic Saturday morning. It was Alvarez?s way to say thank you because the money raised by the Classic goes to the University of Wisconsin athletic department. There were 19,430 registered walkers and runners in Saturday?s event that included an 8-kilometer run and a 2-mile walk. That was the second-largest number of entrants for the 30th annual event, according to Murawski.
