Bring your holiday cheer and favorite winter costume to this new 1K, 5K & 10K run through the holiday lights at Avondale’s Civic Center Complex. Embrace the festive spirit with a fun and active holiday tradition before dashing inside for the holidays.

The Grit Like CJ 5K is a powerful event in honor of Christian “CJ” Fox who is bravely recovering from a serious injury. CJ’s journey is a testament to the power of dedication, perseverance, hard work, and most of all, the strength of God. This 5k is not only a celebration of his incredible grit but also an opportunity to raise funds that will support his ongoing rehabilitation and therapies, while also working to help others facing similar battles. Through this event, we aim to highlight CJ’s unwavering perseverance while bringing glory to God, who continues to work mightily in and through his life. Join us in this race of faith and strength, as we stand together in support of Christian and all those fighting their own challenges.
