Judd Jog 5K

The Judd Jog 5K is an annual running event organized by Polk Sheriff’s Charities, Inc. The race takes place at the Polk County Sheriff’s Office main office located in Winter Haven, Florida. All proceeds from the event benefit the United Way.

The event features a single distance for participants:

  • 3.1 miles (5K)

Participants who cross the finish line receive a medal. Awards are presented to the top male and female finishers in several categories, including overall, overall masters for those aged 40 and older, and the Living Legend Award for the oldest male and female finishers. Age group awards are also provided three deep for both genders in brackets ranging from 0-9 up to 70 and older.

In addition to the run, the event hosts family-oriented activities on-site. Visitors can view Polk County Sheriff’s Office Special Operations vehicles on display and participate in a K-9 meet and greet. Participants who pre-register by March 26, 2026, are guaranteed a shirt in their selected size; otherwise, shirts are distributed while supplies last.

The event provides an early packet pickup option on the day before the race at the Sheriff's Office. Community members who do not wish to run can participate as volunteers to assist with event operations or cheer for the runners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
