Edita Tejada, of Northampton, a walker in Suburban North Family YMCA’s 5-K race, enjoys the exercise during her brisk walk on the cool morning Oct. 12 along the D&L Trail in North Catasauqua. The race, which benefits the YMCA’s programs, is held in memory of Debbie Linton, a Catasauqua High School athlete who died from breast cancer. The race was open to both runners and walkers.PRESS PHOTOS BY DONNA GEWERTZ
