JackFest 2025

🏃‍♀️Race Overview

PLEASE NOTE: It is only necessary to register your child for one race, even if they're interested in doing multiple races. For example, if you have a 8 year old boy that wants to do both the Elementary Half Mile XC race as well as the Superhero Dash, just register them for one of those two races and email us at jackfestcville@gmail.com to sign up for the second race. Our goal is to maximize participation with minimal cost.
