LOMA LINDA >> The Loma Linda University Health PossAbilities Triathlon took to the streets of Loma Linda on Sunday, April 24. All able-bodied and challenged athletes were invited to participate in the race. There was also a kid’s triathlon. The adult triathlon was composed of three different segments: a 5K (3.1 mile) run/walk/roll; 11-mile bike ride, and a 150-yard swim in the Drayson Center pool. The kid’s triathlon was composed of a quarter-mile run/walk/roll; a quarter-mile bike ride and a 25-yard swim in the Drayson Center pool. Finisher medals were given to all participants. There was also a cash prize purse for the top three overall winners in the adult races. The 14th Annual PossAbilities Triathlon began at 7 a.m. at the Loma Linda University Health Drayson Center on Stewart Street. Adult races started at 7 a.m. and the kid’s race started at 9 a.m. A hotdog lunch and refreshments were provided to participants. Loma Linda University Health PossAbilities, powered by Quest Diagnostics, is a free community outreach program. PossAbilities’ goal is to offer disabled individuals who were born with or have permanent physical injury a sense of community, as well as offer activities and practical direction to help them lead an active, fulfilling life.

A residence shows visible damage from flooding, mud and debris following severe winter storms that began Dec. 23, which brought heavy rain and debris flows to mountain and high desert communities across San Bernardino County. This week, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors approved recovery-related fee waivers to help eligible property owners repair and rebuild as response and long-term recovery efforts continue.
