Spirits High Despite Rain at the 31st AdventHealth Corporate 5K

The 31st AdventHealth Corporate 5K took place on Thursday evening, May 8, at Lake Eola Park. Despite the Florida weather bringing a mix of sun and rain, the event was a success for workplace wellness, team building and giving back to community causes.

Team Jackson Healthcare used the AdventHealth Corporate 5K as an opportunity to gather their employees, many who work remotely, and celebrate their team’s generous contribution to Second Harvest Food Bank. Their employees raised $4,150, which equates to 16,600 meals provided to those in our community who are facing food insecurity.

Leading the way among the 14,116 athletes was Daniel Beckstead, representing the Orange County Government team. Daniel finished with an impressive time of 15:28. Amber Schulz, the overall female champion, ran an outstanding time of 17:37 as a member of Track Shack’s Corporate 5K team.

AdventHealth, demonstrated that they are an organization dedicated to health, wholeness and uplifting the community, by winning the Team Spirit Award with over 2400 team members. A Corporate 5K record!

Orange County Library System won the Best T-shirt Design Contest. “The design was submitted by Orange County Library System’s Chickasaw Branch staff and won the employee vote,” said Jo Charles, Team Captain.

“The AdventHealth Corporate 5K was a night to remember… Through rain and shine the event exceeded expectations for participation and charitable giving,” said Jon Hughes,
