Corporate Challenge - Thursday June 7, 2012

This annual race supports local charities and draws more than 10,000 participants from hundreds of companies. UB’s Corporate Challenge tent party has a UB spirit theme and we want to be the largest corporate team! Last year, we had nearly 230 participants.

The 3.5 mile race in Delaware Park starts at 6:45 p.m. on Thursday June 7, 2012.  The UB Team welcomes all staff and faculty. You can run, walk or just attend the event for good food and fun with colleagues and to cheer on our UB team. All participants, regardless of running, walking or watching must register.
