A group of South Carolina college students are getting ready to take their final exam with running shoes, not No. 2 pencils.

Students in the College of Charleston’s Sport Physiology and Marathon Training leave Friday for Nashville, Tenn., and the Music City Marathon that will serve as their final. Class professor Michael Flynn says 100 students expressed interest in the class but only 31 stayed with it.
