The 5K run starts at 4:30pm and takes place on the beautiful campus of Life University during their annual holiday light show! As the run progresses, the sun will go down and the lights will come on!
After the run, stay and enjoy the holiday festivities, with caroling, hot cocoa, FREE photography, music, and FREE ENTRY into the Lights of Life!
Dress in holiday gear and add the festivities! We will play a mix of holiday music with our regular faves.
This is a rain-or-shine event; however, in the case of extreme weather, race updates will be posted here and emailed to all participants. Safety of all participants, spectators, volunteers, vendors, sponsors, and law enforcement will always be our first priority.
No refunds.
