Celebrate Freedom 5K And One Mile Fun Run

July 3, 2013

The 14th Celebrate Freedom 5K And One Mile Fun Run will be held at 8 a.m. Thursday, July 4 at the Jay City Park, 5259 Booker Lane.

Course: The race starts and finishes at the Jay City Park. The course is scenic running through the neighboring countryside and looping around the local Jay Elementary and Jay High School campus. The last half of the course is run on a paved road that splits cotton and peanut fields on both sides. The  course is basically flat and makes for fast times, according to organizers.

Watermelon and refreshments will be served to all participants following the race.

    There is a one-mile fun run if you would rather do that.

    Does anyone know if you HAVE to run this? I’d do it for the exercise and different route but cant run it.
