Beyond the Bell - (BTBLA)

26 miles. 8 weeks. 17 years strong.

For eight weeks, students trained at their school sites, completing 25 miles one lap at a time. Then they stepped into Dodger Stadium to run their 26th mile and finish what they started.

Seventeen years of helping young people build discipline, confidence, and belief in themselves. Every medal represents commitment, effort, and heart.

A sincere thank you to The McCourt Foundation for their continued partnership, and to Dodger Stadium for giving our students a finish line they will never forget.

Proud of every runner who showed up and crossed that line.

Los Angeles Unified School District

The 17th annual 26-mile event was a tremendous success! We are deeply grateful to The McCourt Foundation for their unwavering support and sponsorship, helping LA Unified students stay active and healthy. Their generosity allows us to celebrate this incredible journey at the iconic Dodger Stadium.

A heartfelt thank you to Board Members Newbill and Rigo for their presence, and to the dedicated Beyond The Bell coaches and staff who worked tirelessly over eight weeks to prepare our students for this momentous day.

Most importantly, thank you to the parents, friends, and spectators—your support and encouragement made all the difference. Because of you, over 4,000 students crossed the finish line with pride, knowing the power of their own perseverance and achievement!
