elite long jump

After you're done running, stay and watch the downtown Elite Men's Long Jump!

Eight of the best long jumpers on the planet will showcase their amazing ability. These athletes can soar the distance of 26-27ft. (That's more than the distance between the basketball hoop and the three point line.) To enhance the entertainment, we will measure from their takeoff to determine their true leaping distance. Spectators have a chance to score free giveaways every 30 minutes. Big and Baby Jay will make appearances as well as a DJ to add to the fun.
