Just as dawn broke over the Las Vegas skyline yesterday morning, 250
runners gathered below the iconic Hilton Hotel sign to race a 5k course in a
bid to raise funds for the AEM Foundation, which supports the Construction
Challenge initiative.
Doosan Infracore marketing manager Robert Gilles just pipped Arcelor
marketing manager Brent Lesseuer to first place with the winning time of
15minutes 38seconds. First lady home was Cygnus Business Media publisher Amy
Scwardt.
The event co-ordinated by Maximum Capacity Media and sponsored by
exhibitors at CONEXPO-CON/AGG, raised US$5000, which will be used to continue
the work of the AEM Foundation to encourage young people to consider a career
in construction.
