The 44,000 runners who crossed the finish line in 75-degree weather kept the medical team very busy this year and provided a lot of great experience dealing with heat illnesses and a variety of other ailments.

Also on this trip, the students were able to tour Notre Dame University's Athletic Training Department and see how a larger university its program.
