Sobre el evento
John Michael Morrison is the son of Doug and Amanda Morrison. On August 12, 2019, six weeks after his 17th birthday, he lost his life in a car accident. He was starting his Junior year at Randall High School in Amarillo, Tx.
John Michael LOVED TO RUN!! As a Randall Raider his sophomore year, he qualified for and ran with his team at the State Cross Country Meet. He was also the district 3-5A JV Champ in the 1600m & 3200m at the district track meet. But more than running, he loved his teammates. He had a “team first, ALL IN” attitude. He encouraged his teammates in a Christian manner and put the best interest of his team and teammates before his own.
The Morrison Family has chosen to honor John Michael’s character and love of running by awarding scholarships to Senior Class Cross Country/Track runners in the Amarillo Area who exhibit the same character and passion for the sport of running.
Thanks to your ongoing support and that of our AMAZING team of sponsors, volunteers and participants, we were able to present $32,000 in scholarships last spring (2023) bringing the total awarded to $71,000 over the last 4 years. We anticipate awarding an additional $30,000 in scholarships this year, as well.
We’ve been SO BLESSED by your support and that from our friends, family and the Amarillo community!!! We're looking forward to CELEBRATING our 5th YEAR as we honor John Michael and celebrate these outstanding athletes who share his passion for running.
Your support will enable the Morrison Family to continue to honor John Michael’s memory and his love of running while helping fellow athletes continue their education.
