Jodi 5K Run & Walk
About this race
Please join us for the 5th annual Jodi 5K Run & Walk to benefit the Lung Cancer Initiative!
This is a community event remembering Jodi Lynn Koviach who died from lung cancer in October 2021. Jodi loved running and even more the community and camaraderie it provides. There is no better way to honor her memory than by having this run, which symbolizes so much of what she valued AND supports a great cause!
The race is a chip-timed 5K run or walk with finisher's awards, t-shirts, and great post-race food and refreshments.

Race day packet pickup will be available on Sunday, Nov. 8 at Forest Hills Park pavilion from 7:45-9:00am.
