Faster Pastor Jeff's Run for St. Jude

Join us for the 2nd Annual "Faster Pastor Jeff's Run for St. Jude," a fun and family-friendly Fun Mile walk/run, 5K race, and 10K race that are open to all runners and walkers of all ages and abilities. This is going to be a fun event for everyone, and it is for a great cause that Bro. Jeff loves so much! All funds raised will be for the lifesaving mission of the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Whether you are racing for a personal best or walking in memory or in honor of a loved one, every step you take helps ensure that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for their child's treatment, travel, housing, or food—because all a family should worry about is the love and care their child receives while being treated at St. Jude. This special event will take place in Bro. Jeff's hometown of Start, LA. The 5K and 10K starting line will be at the Start Baptist Church parking lot and continue onto Charleston Drive and then onto Webb Hill Road, with a turn back to the finish line in the church parking lot (an out and back course). The Fun Mile walk/run will be on Owl Loop, just across the church parking lot (also an out and back course). The Fun Mile walk/run will begin at approximately 7:30 AM, and the 5K and 10K races will begin at approximately 8:15 AM. All participants of the Fun Mile walk/run and 5K and 10K races will receive a finisher's medal. 5K and 10K finishers will receive medals for overall male champion and female champion, and then age divisions for both male and female, as follows: 19 and under, 20 to 29, 30 to 39, 40 to 49, 50 to 59, and 60 and up. Online registration will close on Thursday, August 22, 2026, at 11:00 AM.
