“We are most grateful to Run Saipan and our race participants for making the Holiday Half Marathon and 5.5K Fun Run majorly successful. This occasion is especially meaningful as we commemorate 55 years of service in Saipan. We could not have hoped for a better way to celebrate than to gather with our island residents in the spirit of health, wellness and the longevity of life. After all, AK is ‘Here for Saipan. Here for Life.’ Thank you to all our volunteers and supporting organizations who helped make this a successful event.” said Alex Yap, president of Atkins Kroll.
