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.

The top women's runner was Bethenny Nichols, 27, who came in at 17 minutes and 52 seconds.

Cullen Elementary entered the most runners of all the schools participating in the race and earned the title of "Most Fit School" and $2,500 from the Bryan Clay Foundation.

Los Angeles County Fire Department responded to one race-related injury. The person was treated at the scene, but the extent of the injuries was not immediately known.
