Watch: Runners Brave Rain in Bryan Clay 5K

Wet weather couldn't foil the 2012 Fit4Fall Bryan Clay 5K Run on Saturday.

Despite a downpour of rain, runners of all ages and speeds joined 2008 Olympic gold medalist Byan Clay for the second annual Fit4Fall Bryan Clay 5K Run in downtown Glendora Saturday morning.

The run, where a portion of the proceeds benefitted Glendora Unified schools, enjoyed turnout double the number of as last year's participation, said Clay. Last year's inaugural event gathered 300 runners.

The top men's finisher was Matt Ebiner, 51, who crossed the finish line at 16 minutes and 50 seconds.
