Searing heat can’t defeat avid runners

McHENRY – The hot weather didn’t stop Karen Toci from honoring her late friend Mary O’Shea at the annual McHenry River Run on Tuesday.

Toci, 48, was part of a group of 18 people wearing T-shirts featuring O’Shea’s picture and running the 3-mile race in tribute to O’Shea, who died in April 2011.

“She used to run the [River Run] all the time,” said Toci, who also participated in last year’s race. “We got shirts to honor her.”
