About the event
Each spring, over 10,000 participants gather in downtown State Street for the Crazylegs Classic, with origins linked to three Badger enthusiasts who created the event to support UW Athletics. Named in honor of former Athletic Director Elroy Hirsch, the first run saw 1,525 runners and raised $9,500. The walk component was introduced a few years later, marking its own success. The event has significantly grown over the years, attracting a record number of over 20,000 participants. With a legacy of drawing over 354,000 attendees, it remains a beloved spring tradition in the Madison community.
