AMARILLO, Texas (KAMR/KCIT) – Runners, families, and volunteers came together Saturday morning for the annual John Michael Morrison Memorial 5K, honoring a former Randall High School student whose legacy continues to impact local student-athletes.
The event remembers John Michael Morrison, a 17-year-old junior and cross-country runner who died in an accident in 2019. His family launched the run to celebrate his life and raise scholarship funds for other high school runners.
