By Rebecca Ebanks5K irish jog

Pull out your suspenders, dust off your wig, and don your most colourful socks. It’s here again; the luckiest family fun run/walk in Cayman. Bring your friends, neighbours, and kids out for a fun filled afternoon and some exercise to boot!

The 22nd Annual St. Patrick’s Day 5K Irish Jog will take place on Monday, 17 March 2014 at 5:30 p.m. at Grand Cayman Beach Suites. The 3.1mile course follows the cart path around the Britannia golf course and villas. The entry fee is just CI $10 per person (US $12.50) and all proceeds raised from this year’s event will be donated the Cayman Islands Crisis Centre.

The Jog, co-sponsored each year by Butterfield Bank (Cayman) Limited and Grand Cayman Beach Suites, has become Cayman’s most anticipated fun run/walk, attracting hundreds of local and overseas participants from the serious runners to the walkers pushing baby strollers. Group registration is also encouraged. So don’t be shy to grab your co-workers and sign up a whole band of friends!

Jog participants will receive a T-shirt, race number and have the chance to win one of several fabulous spot prizes awarded on a draw basis. Prizes range from water sport excursions, to dinners for two and even spa services. There will be free hats, face stickers, wigs and other fun wear for everyone. Complimentary refreshments will be available after the event
