This December 6 event will be run in conjunction with the annual Martinsville Speedway Toy drive. The Holiday Run Festival will feature a 5Krun/walk/ ruck and a 10K run/ ruck an hour later, allowing participants to do both the 5K and 10K if they so desire. Both races start and finish on the iconic Martinsville Speedway.

The 5K Toy Walk will be open to those who just want to walk the course and enjoy the ambience of the Speedway venue. Walkers will not be eligible for awards or race shirts and will not receive a race bib.

Looking for more miles? Check out our 15K DOUBLE CHALLENGE. Register for both races under the category: 15K Double Challenge. Run/ ruck both the 5K and the 10K at scheduled times. Both race times will be added together for the 15K results.

RUCKERS, the minimum weight will be 15lbs and we ask that you fill your ruck with new, unwrapped toys for the Martinsville Speedway Toy Drive. Awards will be given to top 3 males and females in both the 5K and 10K.

All runners/ ruckers will receive the official tech fabric short sleeve race shirt if registered by November 20. Those registering after Nov 20 will receive shirts subject to available supply.

15K double challenge participants will also receive a special finisher medal.

Participants will compete for Overall & Age Group awards in all three race categories. Note: 15K registrants may earn awards in each the 5K and 10K as well as the 15K.

ALL participants are requested to bring a new, unwrapped toy for the Martinsville Speedway Toy Drive.
