SUBJECT: Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run 20 9
The Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run (presented by Turkish Airlines) is one of the largest 5K
races in the nation. The purpose of this annual event is to promote running and walking as one
of many options to a healthy lifestyle, which fits right in with our Health & Wellness Program
initiatives. Each year we are eager to increase our level of participation, especially since
proceeds benefit the United Way. This year we had our largest team ever with over 138
registered employees. The Miami Mercedes-Benz Corporate Run rallied more than 28,000
participants. We are proud to announce that members of our great City once again set records
in the Government, City, County, State and Federal category.
