From the Organizer
This will be our 18th year to host this family-fun-filled race!
We have a new timer joining our race family Run2Win will be doing our timing and results.
A 5K in the cool morning of July 4th is a great way to start your celebration of our great country. This chip timed, certified course, takes runners and walkers out of the historic Saint Jo Square through the countryside north of town and then back for the finish. We have a variety of age brackets for male and female runners.
The race is hosted by the Saint Jo Chamber of Commerce and Easy Street Animal Shelter.
We love seeing return racers and welcome new runners/walkers to our little town.
NEW: On site and packet pick-up will be available JULY 3 from 5:30pm-7:30pm at the Gazebo on the square.
Race day on-site registration and check-in starts at 6:30 am at the Gazebo, on the square.
If you are looking for fun things to do on this holiday, there are many activities held throughout the day at Boggess Park, and stick around for the best fireworks show in North Texas, at sundown.
