In what has become an annual North Shore tradition, area residents turned out en masse Sunday to support LUNGevity at the Breathe Deep North Shore walk and fun run.

The event is one of dozens of walks taking place nationwide to benefit the lung cancer nonprofit that funds research and support efforts.

More than $200,000 was raised at the event that takes place at Deerfield High School.

The effort was started in 2012 by Deerfield resident Sue Bersh after her best friend died from lung cancer.

This year’s co-chairs were Lisa and George Spathis of Highland Park.
