From the Organizer
LASAA’s mission is to organize athletic events for our members, which include Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department employees and law enforcement officers. We aim to promote health, fitness, and camaraderie among our members.
The Mug Run series began in 1993. At that time, it was a small event with an average of just 10 runners per race, primarily attended by law enforcement personnel. Over the years, participation has grown significantly, expanding to welcome members of the public. Today, more than 300 runners join us, and the Mug Run continues to foster friendly competition and positive engagement between law enforcement and the community.
Each year, LASAA partners with Sheriff’s stations across the county to host a series of Mug Runs. Each station brings its own spirit, culture, and traditions to the event. This year, Altadena Station is dedicating their Mug Run to commemorating the two-year anniversary of the Altadena Eaton Fire.
One year after the fire blackened the ridges above our town, the inaugural Altadena Forever Run stands as a symbol of resilience and recovery. It honors those who were affected, those who responded, and those who continue working to rebuild and strengthen our community.
The Altadena Forever Run welcomes everyone. Your participation, sponsorship, and presence demonstrate solidarity, remembrance, and hope. Proceeds from this event will be directed to the Altadena Station Unit Fund to support community-benefit initiatives connected to the Eaton Fire Survivors organization, as well as programs supported by the Altadena Sheriff’s Support Group. LASAA’s part in the Mug Run series is to create meaningful, community-focused fitness events and transfer the proceeds to the station hosting the run. Altadena Station manages how this support is directed locally.
