For information about the Run for Rachel on Sunday, May 20, 2012 please visit the 12th Annual Run for Rachel website.   

Thank you to all those who attended the 11th Annual Run for Rachel!

More than 100 volunteers helped as 488 runners competed in a 5K race.  Thanks to a new initiative with FirstGiving, participants in the 5K Run and 3K Walk raised more than $70,000 that will directly benefit victims of domestic violence and their families.

In the men’s category, Nick Birosik of Easton, Pennsylvania took first place with a time of 16:54.  Last year’s winner, Gary Rosenberg of Morristown came in second with a time of 17:17 and John Hogan of Washington Township again took the third place spot with a time of 17:41.  For the women, Elena Rozhko of Morristown finished in first place in 17:43, Catherine Smith of Wayne came in second with a time of 18:08 and Jen Found of Hopewell came in third with a time of 18:15.
