By Melanie Maxwell
The annual Shamrocks & Shenanigans 5K Run and Walk starts and finishes in downtown Ann Arbor and draws a colorful cast of characters. AnnArbor.com photographer Melanie Maxwell captured the scene.
More than 1,650 runners and walkers completed the course. Lindsey Lalonde was first with a time of 16 minutes, 33.9 seconds, nearly 30 seconds ahead of runner-up Jeff Girbach.
Results from the run, which benefits Mott Children's Hospital, will be available at the official website.

How many runners? How many walkers? How much was raised? Other activities going on at the event?
