Notes: 1980 was the inaugural year. This event was known as the Manufacturers Hanover Capital Challenge ("Manny-Hanny") from 1980-84,
the Manufacturers Hanover Corporate Challenge from 1985-91, the Chemical Bank Corporate Challenge from 1992-95, the The Chase
Corporate Challenge
from 1996-2000, the JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge in 2001, the GHI Workforce Team Challenge from 2002-2009
and the CDPHP Workforce Team Challenge starting in 2010. The event was directed by (HMRRC) committee from 1980-82, by Carter
Andersson-Wintle from 1983-92, by Al Maikels from 1993-2003, by Mark French from 2004-05, by Pete Newkirk from 2006-11, by Mike Rabideau in
2012, by Mark Warner from 2013-23, and by Todd Mesick starting in 2024. The 1980-1994 Course was two loops around the Empire State Plaza
(a killer hilly course!) ending on the plaza near the "pool of reflections." In 1995 the race adopted the "Up Madison Ave, around the Park and
back to the Plaza" route, more or less. The 2015 event had a record 10,237 entrants. Chip Timing started in 2013. In 2016 we capped the
number of entrants at 10,000. The 2020 event was canceled due to COVID-19. The 2021 venue switch to the Altamont Fair Grounds was
precipitated by the COVID-19 epidemic. 2022 saw a return to the Empire State Plaza/Washington Park traditional course.
