About the JMS 5k Race

The course runs out and back along the Indian Creek Trail, starting and finishing in the high school parking lot. The trail surface keeps things smooth underfoot, and the out-and-back shape means you get a clear sense of how far you have come before you turn for home. The race remembers a longtime local race director and timer.
