The expected large crowd for the sixth annual Stein Hospice 5K did not disappoint Saturday morning.   

A record 292 runners and walkers turned out, making it the largest number of competitors since the 5K began in 2007.   

A big reason for the turnout was in honor of Chris Smith, the Perkins cross country coach and Stein Hospice pharmacist who was killed in a car crash June 10.
