  Leslie Cohen Law PC is once again proud to be hosting the 310K Run/Walk, a 5K event that raises funds for the Public Counsel Debtor Assistance Project. Now in its 15th year, the 310K is a community-driven race that takes place right on the beach in Santa Monica, drawing many returning runners and walkers year after year. The event welcomes participants of all paces—whether you're running to set a new personal record or walking with friends to support a great cause. With in-person and virtual options, the 310K offers a meaningful way to give back while enjoying one of the most scenic race routes in beautiful LA.

  For the 2nd year in a row, we return to the California Incline!

  This year, the 310K will take place on Sunday, November 22nd—a great way to kick off Thanksgiving week with purpose and community spirit.

  Our new location last year got such rave reviews that we need to make it a tradition. We will once again start at the iconic Santa Monica Pier and run down and then back up the California Incline.

  Our Beneficiary

  Proceeds from the 310K support the Public Counsel Debtor Assistance Project (DAP), which provides free bankruptcy-related legal services to individuals and families across Greater Los Angeles. Through clinics, educational workshops, and one-on-one legal representation, DAP helps clients understand their rights, navigate the legal system, and find paths toward financial stability. DAP is part of Public Counsel, the largest pro bono legal aid organization in the United States. Leslie Cohen Law PC received the James King Community Service Award from Public Counsel in 2016 in recognition of the impact of the 310K.
