Runners took part in the I-5 Toyota Back-to-School Dash in Chehalis on Saturday, Aug. 23.
I-5 Toyota hosts the Back-to-School Dash each year in August following the first race that took place in 2006.
Participants come from all around the Pacific Northwest to compete for their chance to win the 5K, which supports local school scholarships.
Over the years, the I-5 Dash has donated over 150 scholarships to all high schools within Lewis and Thurston counties, with dollar amounts of the scholarships ranging from $250 to $5,000.
In recent years, the Dash has shifted its focus to technical and trade programs rather than four-year college programs.
