A crisp bright morning at Wilson Farm Park, Wayne, formed the backdrop for the festive morning. Creative costume on the trail included the Halloween Oreo, Knight of Justice, Wonder Woman, Brawny Man, Mary Katherine Gallagher of Saturday Night Live, Victoria Ratliffe of White Lotus, a Where's Waldo duo, and more.
Huge thanks to the Chester County Bar Association’s Pro Bono Committee for organizing the event, to our amazing sponsors, and to everyone who ran, walked, cheered and volunteered for this milestone event. Since 2005, the Trial Run 5K has raised more than $270,000 for LASP!
Congrats to the top finishers, Kevin Long and Sara Planthaber, best costume winner Where's Waldo team, and the first-ever Team Competition Trophy winners, Unruh Turner Burke & Frees, for having the greatest number of participants at this year's Trial Run.
