JAZZ HALF

Thanks to all who participated in the inaugural Jazz Half Marathon. It was our goal that you would RUN away with a good feeling and a positive experience. Our mission was to bring awareness and raise the dollars that Children's Hospital needs to carry on its fantastic service to our region.

In the coming days you will be notified concerning results, completion certificates, course photos and much more. We are looking forward to next year's 2nd edition of the Jazz Half.

Hope to see you there,
Mike Cambre
Race Director
