Runners and walkers of all ages came out for the 11th Annual Run for Rachel on Sunday, May 22, 2011 at the Livingston Oval. The morning included a 5K USA Track and Field – New Jersey Women's Open Championship Race; a 3K Walk; and a Kids' Run.  More than 100 volunteers helped as 488 runners competed.

Thanks to a new initiative with FirstGiving, participants in the Run for Rachel raised more than $70,000.
