It is an office social, outside of the office that focuses on teambuilding and worksite health and fitness. More than 20,000 runners, walkers and joggers from over 600 Atlanta companies will participate in what has become the largest workplace-organized 5K corporate fitness event in the world.
Registration is now open to all full-time faculty and staff members of Georgia Tech. Part-time employees, family members, and friends may participate (not eligible for team awards). All levels of walkers and runners are welcome.
As part of the Georgia Tech team you will receive an event t-shirt and a Georgia Tech Team Dri-Fit shirt; register by August 1st to guarantee your size. In addition, participants are able to receive free membership to the CRC July 13th - September 24th (does not apply to current members). Don't miss out on the event social after the 5K with food and beverage on the night of September 24th.
Departmental Challenge
Be sure to enter your GT department in the departmental challenge. The department that has the most members participating in the corporate challenge will receive their name on the Georgia Tech Departmental Challenge plaque and on-site chair massages for their staff! This year, the challenge will be divided into two categories: Small Departments (fewer than 50 employees) and Large Departments (more than 50 employees).
