Calling runners and walkers of all ages and abilities!
Join us for Johnstown’s annual J-Town Jog 5K and Kids 1 Mile Dash to kick off BBQ Days. The Jog is a fun, family-friendly run bringing neighbors together to get active, support one another, and celebrate community spirit.
↪ For 2026, the Jog has a new home at Roosevelt High School! Go RoughRiders!
After the races, join the community at the annual Johnstown BBQ Days for post-run festivities including music, food, and entertainment for the whole family. Celebrate your achievements with delicious food from local vendors and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow participants.
And don't worry: you'll have plenty of time to make it to the parade after the race!
The J-Town Jog 5K and the Kids 1 Mile Dash will be chip timed!
A chip will be attached to the back of your bib. Your time will begin when you cross the starting line and stop when you cross the finish line.
Not a runner?
Volunteers make the Jog happen!
