A 5K walk/run took place at Orlando Health Hospital in Horizon West Saturday, Sept. 11.
More than 100 runners, walkers and cyclists joined Healthy West Orange early Saturday, Sept. 11, to celebrate the fifth anniversary of its Healthy Selfie. The West Orange Walk 5K started at Orlando Health Hospital in Horizon West.
Brian Wetzel of Orlando Health began the race with a moment of silence in remembrance of 9/11, and Andrew Noble of Smart Fitness led the group in a quick warmup.
This was an untimed 5K, so no winners were announced, but the first to cross the finish line was Ian Braziller.
This year’s 5K was held both in person and virtually. Virtual participants have until Sept. 30 to complete their 3.1 miles at their own pace.
