Cerro Coso Community College will be hosting its first-ever Jingle Jog 5K Color Run Saturday, Dec. 2, at 9:30 a.m. The public is invited to participate.

The 5K course will take runners across the Cerro Coso campus and through the surrounding desert before ending back on campus for food, drinks, and other festive fun. Participants should be prepared to get a little messy as throughout the race, Christmas-colored powder will be launched at the runners.
