About the Maynard Jackson High School Jaguar Jog 5k
The course starts at Maynard Jackson High School and runs through Grant Park, a historic neighborhood with tree-lined streets that give the route real character. The race is timed for cooler mornings, which suits the terrain well. Profits go toward the school's booster club, so the race has a direct connection to the students there.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at the school, with race-morning pickup available as well. Parking is on site but fills and closes before the start, so the Kroger across the street is a reliable backup.
