The final tally has been made, and this year's Give Hope. Run. for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital was the best to date!

This year's event, held once again at Burdette Park on Evansville's west side, was put together by Craig and Katie Witso whose son, Sean, was treated at St. Jude for a brain tumor in 2008, but unfortunately had his journey cut short when he passed away in 2010.

Thanks to the Witso's dedication to making this event the bigger and better each year, it's quickly become the largest Give Hope. Run. fundraiser in the country, and this year was the best yet in terms of attendance and money raised. Check out the video highlights below complete with the National Anthem sung by country music star, Dylan Scott, who stuck around after the race was over to perform a few of his hit songs.
