WCCO-TV sports director and anchor Mark Rosen paid tribute to his friend and colleague Bob Rainey by leading a team of walkers and runners at yesterday’s successful Get Your Rear In Gear 5K. Rainey was a fellow sports reporter and weekend anchor at WCCO-TV. He passed away last year at the age of 46 after a difficult battle with colon cancer. Team t-shirts with Rainey’s image on the front set the WCCO team apart as they participated in the 5K run and walk. Rosen, whose sister is a colon cancer survivor, shared a personal message and video footage of the Get Your Rear In Gear event in his newscast on Sunday.
