It's a 3.5-mile race through Central Park followed by a huge celebration of the New York City workforce. Employees from some of New York's largest companies will gather in Central Park over two back-to-back race nights.
It's different from other races in New York because runners sign up to compete in teams with their companies, including American Express, Morgan Stanley, Bloomberg, NYC Parks and Rec, and Madison Square Garden.
The event has grown dramatically over the past five decades, with nearly 190 times more participants and over 17 times more companies involved than when it first began in 1977.
2026 will mark the 50th year of the Corporate Challenge. JPMorganChase will make a donation to the Central Park Conservancy on behalf of all participants to celebrate the Corporate Challenge.
