Run Run Ruduck 5K 2023

Join us for the Run Run Ruduck 5K around beautiful Deer Creek. Wear your favorite Christmas sweater, dress as Cousin Eddie or show up as Santa! Instead of the fastest runners, the winners will receive prizes for best costumes. Plan to spend the day in Leland and enjoy all the fun and festivities for Christmas on Deer Creek.

Sign up early to receive T-shirt size. You must be registered by November 17 to receive your requested size. Online registration closes on December 1 at noon, and Race Day registration is $30. If paying at a race, please bring cash or check.

Our generous sponsor, Leland Medical Clinic, will provide free registration for all students (18 and under)!
