The course

From the organizer

Each year “Johnny’s Run” is conducted in the memory of Spc. John J. Kovach to benefit charities that help others in need.  Johnny’s life, cut tragically short  , was one marked with a zest for life and service to others.  Johnny’s giving spirit lives on, through and beyond the lives he touched, with the charity raised at the event named in his honor.  This is our 16th annual run and we would love it if you came out and honored Johnny and raised money for a great cause.
