From the Organizer
For more than 40 years, the Irish Jig has marked the start of Michigan’s racing season, consistently being one of the premier 5K experiences. The 2026 race was a turning point. The Irish Jig took a formal shift to raise critical resources, addressing the fact that We’re running against a brutal truth: 1 in 2 people will face cancer in their lifetime. That’s not a statistic we’re willing to accept and why we took steps to take the Jig WellBeyond what it's been before
