Over 400 runners and walkers participated in the Edmonds Community College Foundation’s first 5K Walk and Run on Nov. 19, and raised $42,300 for student scholarships, emergency funding, and program support.
Students from the college’s Engineering Club, Green Team, and music department provided entertainment and encouragement along the course, while culinary arts students prepared and served fruit- and veggie-infused smoothies.
The top three finishers were Corey Preugschat, Benjamin Kallay and Brittany Allen.
Donning candy cane reindeer antlers, the “Rethink Everything” team of team captain Rick Bjarnson, Eileen Bjarnson, Lisa Bjarnson, Tyler Bjarnson, Jan Holbrook, Haley Nemra, Amanda Stuart, Hank Turner, and Janette Turner took the award for Most Spirited Team.
