I'm not sure about the history behind the race, but I know that today the proceeds from the race go to student scholarships.
The race was not made because of the movie. The movie was made because of the race...make sense?! The movie, "Breaking Away" was filmed, I believe, in the early 70's in Bloomington and the race has been going on for over 50 years.
If I am wrong about this, please let me know!
