About the event
Celebrate the Season at the 12Ks of Christmas!
Gather your family, friends, coworkers, and running buddies for a festive holiday adventure at Redmond Town Center!
The 12Ks of Christmas features a 12K, 5K, and Little Elf Run, offering a distance for everyone—from experienced runners to families participating together. Holiday costumes, cheerful music, and plenty of seasonal spirit will make this much more than an ordinary race.
Both the start and finish will be located at Redmond Town Center, creating a lively and convenient holiday gathering place for runners, walkers, families, and spectators. The 5K and 12K courses will take participants from Redmond Town Center onto the scenic trails surrounding downtown Redmond before bringing everyone back for a festive finish.
Whether you are chasing a personal best, walking with friends, introducing a young runner to the sport, or simply looking for a fun way to celebrate the season, the 12Ks of Christmas is the perfect way to get moving during the holidays.
Little Elf Run
The Little Elf Run is a special holiday race created just for younger runners. This short, noncompetitive event will take place at Redmond Town Center, allowing children to experience the excitement of race day in a fun, encouraging, and festive environment.
Bring the whole family, wear your favorite holiday outfit, and join us at Redmond Town Center—the starting line, finish line, and center of the celebration—for the 12Ks of Christmas!
