It's the 20th anniversary of the 4.2 mile running race in memory of former Army Ranger, Arizona State Sun Devil and Arizona Cardinals football player, Pat Tillman. The event attracts nearly 30,000 participants, more than 1,000 volunteers and helps provide funding for nearly 900 Tillman Scholars.

The lionization of Tillman — the former player who gave up millions of dollars to join the military after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and died in a friendly fire incident in 2004 — has epitomized this symbiotic relationship between the NFL and the military.

He was cremated and his ashes were scattered at sea. Pat Tillman was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2010.
