Bring the whole family! Encourage your friends, family, church, school, or civic group to participate, and help us raise thousands of dollars for our charities! This is a fun run/walk and will not have awards or results. A digital clock will display your time as you cross the finish line.

The 5K will start on Duval Street in front of the Jacksonville Fairgrounds.

The 5K will finish inside the Fairgrounds entering from Randolph Ave.
Important note: The 5K starts at 8:30 AM at the same time as the 15K!
This is a 5K for Charity!
