The streets along the north side of Rhinelander and the town of Pine Lake were filled with runners Saturday morning June 26, 2021 as the YMCA of the Northwoods conducted its 14th annual Hodag Run For Your Life 5K and 10K race. According to official timing and scoring of the event, there were 174 runners who took part in the event, which benefits the Y. "The proceeds from our annual Hodag Run go right back into being able to provide financial assistance and scholarships to those in our community to ensure that all can belong at the Y," YMCA of the Northwoods CEO Ryan Zietlow told the participants prior to the event. "Everyone belongs at the Y and nobody is turned away because of inability to pay because of each and every one of you coming out here this morning." The event started and finished at Hodag Park and included the annual Chase the Hodag fun run for kids following awards. Pictured, participants in the 5K race leave the starting line.
