JACKSON, Tenn.—One local race has participants testing out their ninja skills!
The U.S. Road Running Club hosted its Ninja Marathon Race today. The themed event began at 8:30 this morning at North Park in Jackson.
Runners were invited to wear a costume to the event, and the person with the best costume received an award.
The event includes a 1M, 5K, 15K and half marathon course available to participants.
