The breeze is warm, the sky is blue, and the grass is green. It's time for RAND's annual run in the park!
RAND is looking forward to participating in the 37th annual J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge next Thursday, June 13, in Central Park. Our RAND on the Run team is lacing up its running shoes, and this year we're proud to sport a shirt that's a finalist in the J.P. Morgan T-shirt contest.
To vote for RAND's T-shirt, go to the JPMCC contest page and select the New York, June 13 date. RAND's shirt is the first one shown. You can vote every day until June 11. We appreciate your support and promise to run hard for your vote!
By the way, our RAND on the Run T-shirt, designed by RAND's talented graphic artist Ed Flynn, is not only stylish, it also includes an "augmented reality" feature. Scanning the front of the shirt using a free smartphone and tablet app called Layar launches a video about RAND. We invite you to check it out (you can scan the design here) and send us your comments.
This will be the seventh year RAND has participated in the J.P. Morgan Corporate Challenge, and each year we get a little bit faster. (Maybe it's the T-shirts.) Let us know if you're also running—we love a little friendly competition! Check back with us here after the race to see how we did.
No matter what our finishing times—or how we do in the T-shirt contest—we know it will be a fun time!
