Jessica Meredith Jacobsen Memorial 5k and Fun Walk – Towson, MD 2026

Welcome to the 19th Annual Jessica Meredith Jacobsen Memorial 5k & Fun Walk! For nearly two decades, our community has gathered every September to turn a tragic loss into a powerful legacy of support. Whether you are chasing a personal best or enjoying a morning stroll with the family, your footsteps directly support the House of Ruth Maryland, ICS Tuition Assistance, and Father O’Neill Charities. The race and walk will begin at our host school, Immaculate Conception School , in Towson, MD, at 8:00 AM. The race and walk will follow the same course as last year. We will also include a virtual race option for all participants who prefer the flexibility of participating when and where it is convenient for them. T-shirt and bib pickup will be on September 17th and September 18th at the Knights of Columbus Hall located at 616 W. Seminary Ave, Lutherville, MD 21093, between 3:00-7:00 PM. Free parking for the event will be available in the garage on Ware Ave. on race day. Online registration
