THON hopes the event will remind its volunteers why they do what they do as THON Weekend approaches.

"Soon after cleaning my first mat and hauling my first trash bag, I knew that the Big Blue Family is where I would always belong."

The mental and physical feat of dancing in THON requires plenty of guidance to ensure you're able to remain positive and take in everything the weekend has to offer.

With THON weekend quickly approaching, keep your eye out for events benefiting the 46-hour dance marathon.

"I'm so thankful for the support that we got, and the fans for coming out to support such a great cause. It really was a magical day."

Runners divide into teams for the relay and run in either half-hour or hour-long time slots for 46 hours straight.
