About this race

The 5K for KJ is a race through the Manuel Corellus State Forest on Martha's Vineyard. The route follows the Martha's Vineyard Cross Country 5K course. The race was established in honor of a former XC runner who lost his life in an automobile accident. Proceeds from the race go to the Kevin Johnson Cross Country Scholarship Fund. This fund provides a $1,000 scholarship for graduating team members to use towards college expenses. 

Day of registration will begin at 8:00 am - 9:30 am in the MVRHS cafeteria. 

We encourage people to donate to the scholarship fund on the registration page if thy are unable to attend.
