Jog for Judah
About this race
Join the Nexus, X4, and THE ROXX family for Jog for Judah! This 5K fun run supports the Castle family as their son, Judah, battles leukemia. The event will take place at Nexus Fitness in Homewood, AL, on Saturday, May 9th, with the race kicking off at 8:30am. Jog for Judah is free to participate in, but we encourage donations.
Proceeds will go directly to the Castle family to help with the expenses of Judah's treatments. A portion of the proceeds will also be donated to Smile-A-Mile, a local nonprofit that supports families affected by childhood cancer. The American Red Cross will also be on-site hosting a blood drive, offering another way to give back. You can sign up for the blood drive HERE.
If you have a Team Judah t-shirt from last year, we'd love for you to wear it!
After the 5K, stick around! Ladybird Taco will be serving up delicious tacos, with a percentage of the sales benefiting the Castle family. Come run for a cause, grab some tacos, and show your support for Judah and his family! We can't wait to see you there!
