The race is held in memory of Brian Rohne. Brian was the most valuable athlete for the Men's Cross Country team at Northern Kentucky University in 1992. He was fatally injured in January 1993 on a training run. Proceeds raised from the race go to the Brian Rohne Memorial Fund, which is used to assist future runners to pursue that dream of collegiate greatness at NKU.
