Bruin Run/Walk is one of twelve committees within UCLA’s USAC Student Wellness Commission (SWC). We are responsible for organizing one of the biggest student-run events on campus every year: a 5K in the spring that benefits The Painted Turtle. The Painted Turtle is a camp in Lake Hughes, California for kids with chronic illnesses and their families. Our 5k brings together students, UCLA faculty, and members of the greater LA community for a wonderful cause.
The Annual Bruin Run/Walk 5K has been a tradition on the UCLA campus for almost 20 years. In past years, we had gathered around 1000 run/walk participants per year and have been able to raise over $75,000 in a given year for the our beneficiary! Twenty passionate UCLA undergraduate students make this event possible in close coordination with The Painted Turtle.
The 5K itself will be around the perimeter of UCLA’s campus!

This race is so fun! The path is very beautiful as it runs along UCLA’s campus. The shirt and free amenities were also incredible! Everyone there was very supportive and all skill levels were highly encouraged to come participate which I loved.
