Ithaca YMCA Jingle Jog and Family Fun Mile

Race Info

Kick off the holiday season with the Jingle Jog 5K, the festive and competitive portion of our annual event! The run will be chip-timed, so you can track your performance while enjoying a fun holiday atmosphere. Or have the family join us for the family-friendly, noncompetitive Family Fun Mile—a fun way for kids and families to get moving together. Celebrate the day with cookies, cocoa, and holiday cheer, plus a chance to meet friendly characters, including Santa himself! Don’t forget your festive attire: prizes will be awarded for the best costumes, so come dressed to impress. Register by November 6 to receive a commemorative race T-shirt. All proceeds support the YMCA Membership Assistance Program, helping more individuals and families access the Y.
