A Super Team of Townsend Partners took a trip to Albany yesterday, to participate in the huge CDPHP Workforce Challenge 5K event.

Our team had matching “Super Townsend” shirts and even Townsend Capes! to help speed them along during the run.

After some relaxed conversation and fun team camaraderie on the bus trip down, our super crew arrived at the run along with 10,200+ other participants!

This is a huge event with companies from all over the area participating.  It was perfect weather, cool and overcast, with beautiful scenery to take a run or a walk.  And even in that size crowd you could still spot Townsend super heroes here and there.

The excitement to start was palpable.  With that many people all anxious to move – you can feel the buzz around you.  And to know we were running to raise money for charity, made the event even more exciting and meaningful.
