A record setting number of competitors took to the pavement during the Hospital's annual Run for Rehab on Saturday, April 27.
More than 228 runners, walkers, hand cyclists and wheelchair racers capitalized on the pristine weather conditions to complete a four mile course through picturesque Belle Terre Village. Prior to the start, the crowd paused for a prayerful moment of silence to commemorate the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings on April 15.
The popular fundraiser collected more than $5,000 for rehabilitation services at St. Charles.
