About the Jingle Jog 5k
The Jingle Jog 5K benefits Young Life Chesapeake, a mentoring program for high school students, and serves as the final race on a local gran prix series. The race starts and finishes at Great Bridge Presbyterian Church, which also serves as the organizational hub for the whole morning.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at the church, and race-day pickup opens early before the start. Parking is in the church lot, so everything stays in one place. Age group and overall awards are handed out after the race.

Jingle Jog 5k 2025 Results
Going by the 2025 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

The Jingle Jog 5k has been held every year since at least 2022. That is as far back as RunSignup's records for this race go, so it may well be older.
How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
