Pasadena YMCA in the 5k!!!
Up and Moving sponsors YMCA families in Pasadena Marathon 5k
Up and Moving is proud to recognize the children of the Pasadena YMCA afterschool programs who have been training very hard to participate in the 5k event of Marathon Weekend!!
Up and Moving agreed to sponsor any YMCA child and a family member (or other adult) who committed to regular exercise in preparation for the 5k walk. The staff and children have incorporated fitness education and regular walking into their curriculum since early December. Any child who agreed to exercise for 150 minutes a week with an adult family member earned a free entry to the race. Look for the YMCA kids on the course this weekend -- there will be nearly 100 of them out there.
