About this race

Join us face to face OR virtually for the 32nd Annual JW Tiger 5K!   As a fundraiser for our Cross Country team, we have held a 5K race every year for the past 32 years!  This year, you can come RUN THIS TOWN or run YOUR town.    This gives you all the opportunity to join us as we celebrate the wonderful rush of finishing a 5K and you will be helping us raise the money we need to purchase food, snacks, drinks and equipment for our Cross Country team!   We will medal top 3 in each age group as well as special pottery for top 3 male and female runners provided by Mark Ralston, retired Art teacher.
