LITHIA, Fla. – The 20th Annual FishHawk Ranch Road Race provided more than $20,000 in donations to schools in the area, as well as a deserving scholarship recipient.

More than 500 runners of all skill levels entered this year’s 5k and kid’s races, which included both a half-mile and one-mile run/walk. Hundreds of residents also turned out to cheer on the runners as they raced throughout the FishHawk Ranch community.
