CHAMPAIGN -- Students at UI went bare to give back. Hundreds turned out for the Underwear Mile. Runners stripped down before taking off.

They started at Frat Park and ended at Foellinger Auditorium. It cost $5 to take part. All proceeds go to Illini 4000. It's a non-profit that raises money for cancer research.

In case you were wondering, the runners had their clothes waiting for them at the finish line.
