Loma Linda University Health invites employees, students and community members to participate in the 13th Annual PossAbilities Triathlon on the Loma Linda University Health campus on Sunday, April 26. Event coordinators are anticipating nearly 900 participants this year, and everyone is encouraged to partake in this inspiring event. “We look forward to this event every year,” said Cotie Williams, manager, community outreach and patient experience, Loma Linda University Medical Center East Campus. “The camaraderie between participants is just amazing as the triathlon integrates both able-bodied and disabled community members—it's like one unified team playing together.” The annual event is sponsored by Quest Diagnostics and will feature a traditional 5K run/walk/roll, and separate kids and adult triathlons in which both able-bodied and physically challenged athletes can compete side-by-side. Online registration is now open and closes Friday, April 24, at 2 p.m. Race day registration begins at 5:30 a.m. with the race starting at 7 a.m. With time running out, be sure to sign up as soon as possible on the event website. With fun activities for all ages, the event promises to leave everyone with a smile. Whether competing in a race, volunteering, cheering on your favorite athlete, enjoying the live local music, scurrying to the top of the climbing wall, having your face painted or playing in the bounce house (if you are a kid), everyone is sure to have a good time and end the day anticipating next year’s PossAbilities Triathlon. PossAbilities is a free, non-profit, community outreach program to provide individuals of all ages with permanent physical disabilities support and resources to stay active and healthy in life. Loma Linda University Health has run this program since 2001. To learn more about the event and sign up, visit teampossabilities.org.
