The Run for Rafa 5K was held at Hopkinton High School on Saturday. The event included a post-race celebration, community partner booths and a raffle. Organizers put the race together as a fundraiser for HHS student Raphaela Cristeli, who is recovering from life-threatening injuries she suffered after being hit by a car last year.
