A 3K run has been introduced to encourage fathers to run with their children. That race is in addition to the established 5K Run, 5K Walk, 5K Stroller and 10K Run.

The event is part of the Jamaica Moves Corporate Challenge, an initiative of the Ministry of Health & Wellness, which will see corporate teams competing in the races. The Jamaica Moves programme encourages organisations to become ambassadors, by promoting healthy lifestyle habits amongst their employees.

Another new feature for the 2019 Everyone’s a Winner/The Best Dressed Chicken race day will be the Jamaica Mountain Peak’s Rise Up & Run initiative, where participants will be encouraged to sample the brew and collect stamps which will entitle each runner or walker to receive gift bags once they have completed a number of races, and presented proof of purchase of a Jamaica Mountain Peak coffee product.
