About the JCS Alumni Assocation Annual 5K Run/Walk
The course starts at the school and finishes at a local ice cream shop, so the route is point-to-point rather than a loop. You walk back to your car from there, which makes the finish feel less rushed. The surroundings are small-town and quiet, and the pace of the morning reflects that.
Ice cream is waiting at the finish for runners and volunteers alike. The race benefits a senior scholarship fund, and the school itself serves as the clear landmark for the start.
