The RAND on the Run team steps UP and bands together for the race.
Last Thursday on a clear, cool night our RAND on the Run team of 25 people strong laced up our running shoes and donned our Up-Band themed t-shirts for the 38th annual J.P. Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge in Central Park.
Congratulations to RAND ‘s Cesar Macias, who led the RAND runners (and set a RAND on Run record!) with a blazing time of 22:46, and to Albelisa Kemp, who was first among the RAND women at 31:19. Albelisa’s husband Sam clocked an impressive time of 24:42, making Sam and Albelisa the fastest RAND couple!
Approximately 30,000 runners from 638 companies participated in Wednesday and Thursday night ‘s event. It was RAND’s 7th year participating in the 3.3-mile charity run, which raises funds for the Central Park Conservancy as well as team spirit for all of those involved.
