Jess Run 5K Fall 2026

Join us for an invigorating fall morning at Newton Lake Park in Haddon Township, New Jersey, where runners and walkers of all levels gather for the annual JessRun 5K Race. This scenic course offers both competitive athletes striving to achieve personal bests and casual participants enjoying a leisurely stroll with friends.
The event takes place on October 10th, starting early at Newton Lake Park near Lakeshore and Lees Lane. Participants can pick up their race packets—complete with T-shirts and bib numbers—from 8 to 9 AM, followed by a warm-up session beginning at 9:20 AM. The race kicks off promptly at 9:30 AM.
Each finisher will receive a commemorative medal upon completion of the course. While the exact route may be subject to change, it typically winds through beautiful park pathways and around serene lakes, offering stunning views throughout the run or walk.
In addition to celebrating fitness and community spirit, this event supports an important cause by donating proceeds to The Breast Cancer Research Fund managed by Susan G. Komen. Don't miss out on picking up some exclusive hoodie merchandise while you're there.
Experience the camaraderie of runners and walkers at Newton Lake Park as we come together for a meaningful day of exercise and charity.
