Two changes are announced for this years jog. First, on line registration will be done
through active.com
Secondly, the walk will be a FUN-WALK . The walk will still
be timed and results will be published in the paper as usual. There will be no awards. This decision was made because we do
not have the resources to watch for violators of the rules. So it was decided that it will be for FUN and charity.

2011 was our 35th Annual race. The event was sponsored
by Lake Health. This year we had 1,265 participants. It was extremely hot, which may be why numbers were down. The
race started in 1977 with 437 entrants and had the largest turnout in 1991 with 1696 runners . The course is one of the main
reasons for the Jog's notoriety. It is generally considered to be flat, fast and accurate. National age-group, as well as
hundreds of personal records, have been set on its friendly confines.
Conversely the Jog can be one tough lady
and it is prudent to accord the course the respect she deserves.
Proceeds from the race will be donated to The
News-Herald's Newspaper in Education program throughout Lake,Geauga,Ashtabula and portions of Cuyahoga counties. Your
donation provides newspapers for the classrooms.
