Always Going The Extra Mile


Even during off hours, Windermere agents and staff go the extra mile.

Director of Services, Patrick Robinson, who works in the Rancho Mirage office, participated this past Saturday in the world famous Camp Pendleton Annual 10K Mud Run.

“There were 4,000 people in the race,” says Patrick, “including individuals and teams of five. We finished 13th out of 73 men’s teams and 21st overall, out of 376 total teams. We even beat all the military teams.”

Congratulations, Patrick. Thanks for sharing.
