NORTH STAR – More than 400 runners and walkers participated in the 19th annual Angel Run 5K on Sunday morning in North Star.
The race, which is held during the Fireman’s & American Legion Picnic in North Star, began in 1998 to remember Lynn Ann Topp, who went on a morning jog on Feb. 21, 1998, and never returned home. She was found murdered several weeks later, and the run now honors her legacy and all lost loved ones.
The event raises proceeds for a $750 Angel Run scholarship plus the North Star Fire Department and the North Star American Legion.
