John Jay Community Trail Race

John Jay Community Trail Race is a community running event in Cross River, New York, on the John Jay Community Cross Country Trail. The event features a 5k Trail Race, a 4k Jay Walk, and a Kids Jay Dash, a 200-meter race. The 5k winds through wooded, rolling terrain starting on the John Jay Campus lower fields and finishing at the John Jay Contest Track & Field near Route 121; the 4k walk follows most of the same route with a shorter southern hill section.

The Kids Dash takes place on the track. The trail was built by students and volunteers with sponsor support; early signups receive a shirt. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
