Jingle Bell Jog is the traditional kick-off for family holiday fun in southwest Georgia.
This year marks our 24th anniversary of this annual event. The Jog will consist of a 5K and 10K run and a
1-mile fun walk.
About 1,000 participants wind their way through the tree-lined streets in Albany's beautiful Rawson
Circle neighborhood. Children are invited to cheer on the runners by ringing jingle bells at the start and
finish lines at Phoebe HealthWorks. Three-deep awards in 15 age categories of men and women are given to the
5K and 10K runners. The top male and female over 40 in the 5K and 10K receive the prestigious Master Awards.
And, everyone crossing the finish line receives a ticket and a chance for one of dozens of fantastic door
prizes. Jingle Bell Jog is an affiliate of the 2011Run & See Georgia Grand Prix Series and boasts a USATF
Certified Course. Our race is timed by Racing Solutions from Atlanta, GA.
100 % of proceeds from Jingle Bell Jog benefit the Children's Miracle Network and are used to fund the many
needs required to treat critically ill and injured children in our community.
