More than 12,000 runners and walkers took part in the Spring Lake 5 Mile Run.

The race started as a small town run but has since grown into New Jersey's largest road race.

In the past 22 years, Friends of the Spring Lake 5 have donated over $3.7 million to local causes and charities.

Officials say the race is known to many as the unofficial start to summer and a family tradition that has kept runners and walkers coming back year after year.

Everyone who participated received medals. The first person crossed the finish line in less than 25 minutes.

This is the 47th year for the annual run in Monmouth County.
