About the Event

We are excited again to be hosting our Half Marathon and 5K race on December 6, 2025 at 7:30 AM. Our city will be all dressed up for the holidays! The course will begin at Springdale Estates, and wind through Christmas in Candyland which features custom built cottages made especially for kids and giant decorated trees. The course will have some moderate hills and winds through some of the historic parts of our quaint town. There will be ice-skating, train rides, a polar slide and, of course, snow machines. Come join us. This race should put us all in the holiday spirit! Bring the family, run the race, then spend the weekend enjoying Christmas in Candyland.

We will have a super comfy Christmas themed shirt and medal available for all finishers.
