From the Organizer

Our annual Milltown Java Jog is Saturday, January 9, 2026 at 9:00 am. Traditionally this has been a 5k event only but we are pleased to add a 10k option this year! Our route is also a little different and will be strictly in our downtown district with the starting point beside Milltown Java rather than in front.

This year’s proceeds will go towards an updated mural for downtown. Milltown’s mural was our first in recent years and is in need of brick and mortar repair and an updated image. We are pleased to again have race proceeds benefit our hometown.

As always, a complimentary breakfast will be provided for race participants. Sponsors help us cover race expenses.  

Sponsors are listed on race t-shirts and banners and may distribute business info or coupons in race bags or set up a table on race day. Please contact Milltown Java by December 30 to be a sponsor. 

Packet pick up will be available Friday, January 8, 6:30 am  to 2 pm or at our outside registration table on race day beginning at 7 am.

Participants registered by December 30 will receive a t-shirt on race day. We will not provide t-shirts for registrations received after December 30.

5K -  $35
10K - $45

A free breakfast will be provided for participants.

Note: There will be no refunds or exchanges.
