Original story on PennTrackXC.com

This Thanksgiving we will be holding the 2nd annual Jimmys Run: The Jimmy Cogan Memorial 5k and One Mile Family Fun Run/Walk. Jimmy was an employee of Central Bucks School District in the maintenance department and was also an Assistant Coach of the West Track and Field team. In November of 2009, he was killed in an automobile accident.

Last year we held the first event and it was a great success: proceeds from the event subsidized a scholarship awarded to a track & field athlete and also the future education of Jimmys daughter.
