URBANA -- Hundreds got on their feet to raise money for multiple sclerosis. Melissa Mills was diagnosed with MS two years ago.

This is the first year she walked with her own team to support the cause. Sunday, there were 300 walkers around Meadowbrook Park.

At the beginning of the race, organizers already counted more than $40,000 for the area. Last year, the MS Society gave back more than $2 million for research.
