When Entourage's Jeremy Piven was having coffee with a friend, the talk turned to triathlon--the friend was racing in the Nautica Malibu Triathlon. "I want to do that," thought Piven.
And he did. Piven was one of several hundred athletes who took part in the 2009 Nautica
Malibu Triathlon on Sunday. Competitors swam a half-mile, ran 18 miles along the Pacific Coast Highway, and then did a four-mile run in Zuma and Trancas beaches.
Along with Jeremy Piven, many big hollywood celebs raced, including Jennifer Lopez, Terri Hatcher, Mario Lopez, Matthew McConaughey, Andy Baldwin, William H. Macy, and Felicity Huffman. Disney CEO Bob Iger completed as a relay participant, and also presented a $250,000 check to Childrens Hospital. The athletes raced to benefit the Pediatric Cancer Research Program at Childrens Hospital Los Angles, topping their goal of raising $1 million.
The Nautica Malibu Triathlon is always a great event, but this year was an especially great success--thanks to all the athletes who raised so much money for this amazing cause. Check back in a day or two for the video from the event!
