This 5K Stadium Challenge is a "stadium run" that will take runners up all seven levels of EverBank Field, home of the Jacksonville Jaguars! This event is a fundraising event with proceeds benefitting the Duval County Athletic Foundation to help save athletic programs in Duval County Public High Schools. The Duval County School Board made a decision to cut funding for some high school sports programs, including Cross Country. These sports programs will only survive with financial help from the community!
