A wild pack ran June 3 through the Lincoln Park Zoo. Don't worry, the animals are still in the cages. More than 2,200 runners tromped through the exhibits during the Run for the Zoo. Both a 5K and 10K were offered, and the race benefited zoo operations.

Robbie Wade, 25, of Chicago won the 10K in 31:33. Sue Deehan, 40, took the women's 10K prize in 40:26.

In the 5K competition, Jeff Hojnacki, 33, broke the tape in 15:32. Lisa Jurski, 33, was the first-place woman (19:31).
