This past Saturday, the Pasadena Police Department’s Fitness Team ran in the Karbach Brewing Co.’s Popsicle Dash 5k. The Pasadena Police Department prioritizes our personnel’s overall health, and the Fitness Team is just one of many ideas the Resiliency and Mentorship Program (RAMP) is implementing. The R.A.M.P. program is built around the five pillars of wellness. (mental, physical, social, financial, and spiritual)
By building a team to participate in local 5ks and fitness challenges, we are helping to build on the foundations of mental, physical, and social resiliency. Everyone runs at their own pace but celebrates their accomplishment together at the end! More races are on the horizon, and all P.P.D. employees are encouraged to participate.
Congrats to everyone who completed this 5k; Officers S. Benge, E. Gonzalez, and S. Mata; Sgt. D. Franklund, Sgt. A. Ontiveros, Lt. K. Bowman; Academy Coordinator A. Sanchez; PSO B. Rosales; and Record’s Clerk S. Sanchez. Next, the team will run the Watermelon Dash in August!
