Event summary
Join us for the inspiring Jog for Judah on Saturday, May 9th, 2026, at Nexus Fitness in Homewood, Birmingham, Jefferson! This uplifting 5K fun run is dedicated to supporting the Castle family as their son, Judah, courageously battles leukemia. The race will kick off at 8:30 am, and while participation is free, we warmly encourage donations to assist with Judah's treatment expenses. A portion of the proceeds will also benefit Smile-A-Mile, a wonderful local nonprofit that aids families affected by childhood cancer.
In addition to the run, the American Red Cross will be on-site hosting a blood drive, offering another meaningful way to give back to the community. Be sure to wear your Team Judah t-shirt from last year if you have one, and after the race, treat yourself to delicious tacos from Ladybird Taco, with a percentage of sales supporting the Castle family. Come together to run for a cause, enjoy great food, and show your love and support for Judah and his family. We can't wait to see you there!
