The inaugural 5K Eco Run hosted by Jamaica Sotheby’s International Realty; in partnership with Tryall Club, concluded with resounding success earlier this month, bringing together fitness enthusiasts, environmental advocates, and the local community for a day of purpose-driven wellness.

Participants embarked on a scenic run through the lush landscapes of Tryall Club, with Brandon Kerr and 12-year-old Kaelyn Lawes taking top honours as the fastest male and female runners, respectively. Their remarkable performances were among the many highlights of a day filled with energy and excitement.

Building on the success of this year’s event, plans are already underway for the next edition of the 5K Eco Run, promising an even larger impact and broader participation. The Sotheby’s and Tryall Club partnership remains committed to supporting Jamaica’s environment and communities through future initiatives. Highlights are here in the Business Social.
