A Merry Christmas Run 5K/10K/13.1 MEMPHIS

Embrace the spirit of Christmas and join "Jingle All the Way: A Merry Christmas Run," an enchanting holiday race designed to celebrate the true essence of the season. This festive run invites participants from all walks of life, whether you're a seasoned runner or someone looking for a leisurely stroll with friends and family.
The event features several waves that cater to different schedules, ensuring everyone can find a time slot that suits them best. Waves A, B, and C start at 7:30 AM, 8:00 AM, and 8:30 AM respectively, providing flexibility for runners of all paces. If you're unable to secure your preferred wave early on, the event also offers a virtual run option that allows participants to complete their race anytime and anywhere.
Participants will enjoy a warm and stress-free environment with dedicated coordinators who provide support throughout the day. The route itself is designed to be welcoming for runners of all ages (under 18 must participate accompanied by an adult), ensuring everyone can partake in this joyful event at their own pace, whether running or walking.
Upon registration, you'll receive a digital training pack and access to local run clubs that foster community engagement and support your fitness journey. A swag bag filled with goodies such as a custom race T-shirt (US mailing addresses only), finisher's medal, towel, and certificate of completion will be shipped directly to your home in the week leading up to the event.
The day before the race, you'll receive an email with all necessary details including course maps. On race morning, bibs are provided on-site as swag is delivered straight to participants' doors, eliminating the need for packet pickup. For those who wish to time their run, apps like Strava or RunKeeper can be used and results submitted online.
In addition to the main event, there's an opportunity to upgrade your T-shirt to a lightweight moisture-wicking technical shirt for just $5 more. This option is perfect for runners looking for extra comfort during their race day adventure.
Virtual participants are also in luck as they receive access to digital training tools and can submit their results via email after completing the run at any time convenient for them, earning the same finisher's medal as on-site runners.
The event is more than just a race; it’s an invitation to join a community that values fitness and charity. By participating in "Jingle All the Way," you'll not only enjoy the festive atmosphere but also contribute to charitable causes through every mile logged post-race, with $1 donated for each mile run by participants.
For those interested in getting involved beyond running, there's an opportunity to volunteer or become a sponsor, helping spread joy and supporting local runners. Join us this Christmas season as we celebrate community spirit and the simple pleasure of sharing good times on two feet.
