Fox Chase Staff Took Their Best Shots in the 2025 Rocky Run Photo Contest!

As Team Fox Chase prepared itself for a triumphant journey through our hometown of Philly at the Rocky Run on Saturday, November 8, many helped generate team spirit by taking part in the 2025 Rocky Run Photo Contest.

Staff from around the Center and network locations went toe to toe with friends and colleagues in a friendly competition to see who had the most creative photo with Rocky.

They didn’t need to enter the boxing ring or head to the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum. Instead, they sought out the life-sized cardboard cutouts of the famous hometown hero that were randomly located around the Fox Chase campus this fall. One cutout even made the rounds at network sites. Participants took their best shots and submitted them via the Temple Talk app.

Three lucky winners received free registration for the Rocky Run, and of course, bragging rights! Congratulations to all who entered the contest for your good sportsmanship and incredible team spirit!
