Hours before two of the most storied franchises in NFL history met in Super Bowl XLV, more than 8,000 people kept a Redondo Beach tradition alive in what has become one of – if not the – largest Super Bowl celebration in Southern California.
Many wore Packer green and yellow or Steeler black and yellow.
Tania Fischer (17:43.9), of Santa Monica, was the first female to cross the finish line in the 5K contest, edging Alison Atkinson, of Manhattan Beach, who finished with a mark of 17:56.8. Sarah Montez placed third at 18:21.8.
Running under the guise of El Gato 4 Loco, Hermosa Beach resident Derick Gilmore’ s plan to run in costume was a last minute decision.
