Crowds come out for the Downtown Dash

Runners hit Brand Boulevard Sunday morning for the Glendale News-Press Downtown Dash, now in its sixth year.

The Glendale Adventist Medical Center and Downtown Glendale Merchants Association are the hosts of the 5K run, which started and ended outside the Alex Theatre.

Proceeds from the event go to the hospital’s stroke program, which officials say is the second-leading cause of death in the area. To make a donation, visit: https://www.active.com/donate/DowntownDash
