Paul Hahn Memorial 5K O'Hana Run
Time & Location
About the Event
The second annual Paul Hahn 5K Memorial 'Ohana Run is being held to honor and continue the
mission Paul took to heart to reach out to others and warn them of the need for colorectal cancer
screening at age 45 or earlier if there is history or symptoms. The race will be held at Mackinaw
Valley Vineyard and Winery which Paul founded. There will be both a 5K and a 1 mile fun
run/walk.
This is a terrain race and the course winds around the property, through the vineyards and around
the lakes. those who ran or walked last year said it was a special course; different than other
races they have participated in.
We thank our generous 2017 sponsors: Central Illinois Endoscopy Center, Midwest Orthopedic
Center, Adams Outdoor and The Catering Company.
The race proceeds will be use to benefit the mission of CRC Life. CRC Life is a local Non Profit
aiming to increase local screening rates through education and programs, and support those who
have been affected by a colorectal cancer diagnosis.

Why ‘Ohana?
The name ‘Ohana was chosen for the race because Hawaii held a special place in Paul’s heart.
‘Ohana means “family” in the broadest sense, not just those you are related to by ancestry but
those you choose to love as your own. Paul achieved many things in his life, but family and
friends were at the core of what he loved. When it was clear his time was short, Paul asked his
‘Ohana to continue the mission to encourage others to get screened early and be spared the loss
and heartache that cancer inflicts on its victims and their ‘Ohana. Join us with your ‘Ohana to
celebrate life and family as we stand up together to strengthen one another in our fight against
cancer.
