A couple of light showers couldn't dampen the spirits of the more than 580 participants in this years Tanner's Team 5k Run/Walk in Sauk Rapids. Organizers and founders John and Cindy Fuls were hoping for at least 487 runners and walkers today to break last year's total of 486...and boy did they! The foundation looks to raise money for families with children who have a life-threatening illness. Whether it's helping with a car or house payment...or with costly treatments, the thousands raised over the past couple of years has been a big help. Look for this wonderful event to grow each and every year. To find out more about the Tanner's Team foundation and the story of Tanner and his family, please click here for their website.
