Event Information
About Glow Run Jackson 5K
The 4th Annual Glow Run Jackson 5K is an event ran by the Fitness Council of Jackson. It benefits our Girl Quest Boy Quest program, an after school running program in which youth in grades 3-7 learn healthy living habits while training for a 5K run. This event is their culminating event! We dress up in crazy glow wear so we can glow our way through this night run. This is the only event of this kind in Jackson and over the years has become very popular with runners and walkers alike. Join us for this brisk and beautiful night in, in crisp fall weather.

About the Course
The Glow Run Jackson 5K runs through our beautiful Ella Sharp Park. We try our best to light the course, while still maintaining our glow, but be aware that the course will be somewhat dark. It is on a closed off road and will have several volunteers standing along to ensure safety of runners.
