The 30th annual World Joggling Championships will be held at the Sparks High School track at 820 15th St, Sparks, Nevada at 8:00am on Tuesday, July 27th, 2010. The championship is being held as part of the week long International Jugglers Association Festival. The IJA festival brings together the best jugglers from around the world for a week of competitions, workshops and shows.
Joggling is a highly skilled sport that combines running and juggling. Joggling requires the competitor to juggle at least 3 balls while running. The rules require that a juggling pattern must be maintained whilst running, and if an object is dropped, the joggler must return to the point where the object fell and continue from there.
Individual results from the 2009 championships, held in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, were as follows:
7 Ball 100 Meter – David Ferman, 1:06.0
5 Ball 100 Meter – David Ferman, 22.6
3 Ball 100 Meter – David Ferman, 13.9
3 Ball 200 Meter – David Ferman, 27.9
3 Ball 400 Meter – David Ferman, 1:03.2
3 Ball 800 Meter – Tyler Wishau, 2:21.0 (IJA meet record)
3 Ball 1600 Meter – Tyler Wishau 5:33.6
3 Ball 5k – Tyler Wishau, 18:47.5

I think you should joggle to the festival, Perry. Get warmed up for the Chicago Marathon.
I’d like to make it, but will have to wait another year most likely.
