As the light of the rising sun crested over the horizon, runners and walkers put a step into their health as they headed to the trail.

Dozens came out to the Gila River Wellness Center to join in on the “Outrun the Sun” 5k, 10k and 2 mile walk on July 16.

Before the activities commenced, participants of all ages got a chance to meet and greet with one another before converging on the trail that winded its way eastward from the Wellness Center and back.

After the last runners and walkers crossed the finish line, Recreation Coordinator Alvin Casoose awarded the top three male and female winners in the 5k and 10k races.
