Description

JJK 5K Run & Walk During the NASCAR Cup Series Weekend at World Wide Technology Raceway

Add to your Labor Day festivities and include the fun and excitement of the third annual
JJK5K Race on September 1 st at World Wide Technology Raceway. Labor Day will be
our annual date. This will be the first event of 2025 Enjoy Illinois 300 week and we will
again honor our hometown champion Jackie Joyner-Kersee. She has dedicated her life
after Olympic competition to supporting the youth of East St. Louis. Please join us for
this incredible opportunity to celebrate her accomplishments and kick off the first event
of the 2025 Enjoy Illinois 300 week.

There are two events to choose from -- the 5K run or 1.25 mile walk around the oval track.  

It will be a unique experience for a great cause! All activities take place throughout the
WWTR facilities, including the same track NASCAR drivers race on for the Enjoy Illinois
300. Race proceeds benefit the JJK Foundation and her Winning In Life program,
which focuses on teaching character and leadership skills– a vital part of the Metro East
community supporting many youth programs.
