\"pictureUNMC is calling for runners, walkers, stroller pushers, wagon pullers and other foot travelers to participate in the 28th Annual Omaha Corporate Cup run on Sunday, Sept. 21. <\/p>\n

UNMC has fielded a team for each Corporate Cup and again asks employees and their family members to participate in the event, which benefits the American Lung Association. <\/p>\n

Thousands of walkers and runners are expected to participate in this year’s event, which starts at 8:15 a.m. at the Omaha Civic Auditorium, 1804 Capitol Ave. <\/p>\n

“This is always a fun day and it supports a wonderful organization,” said UNMC Director of Business Services Keith Swarts, who helped organize the medical center’s first Corporate Cup team in 1980. “It’s a great way to get out and show UNMC’s support of the American Lung Association.”<\/p>\n

The Omaha Corporate Cup — one of the premier running events in the nation and among the largest of corporate road races in the United States — helps fight lung disease, which is the third leading cause of death in the United States. More than 200,000 Nebraskans suffer from some form of lung disease.<\/p>\n

Participants may choose between the 10K (6.2 miles) run\/walk or the two-mile walk. <\/p>\n

All participants and their families are invited to a street party following the event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.<\/p>\n

Click here<\/a> or contact Rick Pruch at 559-8422 or rpruch@unmc.edu<\/a> for more information including registration information. The registration deadline is Aug. 29. The entry fee is $15 for medical center employees and $15 for family members. <\/p>\n

Team T-shirts are optional and are available for $10. <\/p>\n
