About the Event

Celebrate the holiday season in Thompson Park with either a 10K, 5K, & Youth races. Join us on the weekend before Christmas and run on a beautiful, well-marked, and supported course. Even better, bring the kids and have them run their race as well. Everyone gets a technical T-shirt and big and beautiful finisher medal.

Awards Ceremony

Once most of the athletes have finished the course, we’ll hold an awards ceremony to celebrate the top three overall fastest runners in each gender and then each age-group. The kids/youth race is on several distances so that each age group can experience the beauty and excitement of running and racing.
