Playa del Rey 5K

The sun was shining and the weather was beautiful for the Playa del Rey 5K in Los Angeles, California. A huge thanks to Kyle Retter for joining Team Trimbath and competing in his first 5K event, and for trying hard to look like a pro with the outfit he put together...
Somehow we started off the race a little late... after checking in, we went to the car to drop a few things off and on our way back we saw that the race had already started! A few swear words later and we were running to the starting line. It was a rough start but the good news is we finished and didn't come in last place!!

As we started the race, runners were already coming back around on the first loop!

All smiles by the end of the race.


Thanks to everyone who continues to support Team Trimbath. We are almost 1/3 of the way to reaching our fundraising goal of $1500 for the Christopher Reeve Foundation! The next race coming up will be the SELREC 5K Classic on August 15th in Lyndhurst, Ohio. The race benefits the SELREC Scholarship Fund and the South Euclid-Lyndhurst Schools extra-curricular activities. We have a group of Brush High School Alumni and friends joining Team Trimbath for the race. It should be a great event and we hope it will get us even closer to our fundraising goal!
