EVENT DETAILS
Get your sleighs and sneakers ready, because it’s beginning to look a lot like fitness! Bring the whole family out for a festive run (or walk!) through the scenic trails of Gardens North County District Park. Whether you’re chasing your PR or just looking for some holly jolly fun, our 5k or 2k options are sure to keep everyone’s spirits bright. Top boy and girl finishers under 12 will get to light the tree. And stick around after the race for an awards ceremony recognizing top finishers in all age groups—plus a special prize for the best dressed in holiday spirit!
Following the race is our annual Tree Lighting event! We'll have lots of activities for the entire family to enjoy from inflatables, pictures with Santa and Mrs. Clause and a Silent DJ Party. The overall 12 & under division winner of the 5K will flip the switch and light the tree with Santa and Mrs. Clause! The tree lighting ceremony will start at 5:45 pm.
We hope to see you there!
