Saint Nick Six
About the event
Hosted by Saint Joseph Grade School as a homage to Saint Nicolas, on his feast day in early December, the Saint Nick 6 features a 6k Run, 3k Run, 3k Walk, and the 0.06k Run Run Rudolph for first graders and younger.
This year’s race will be our 18th and will be held on Saturday, December 5th. The race starts at the grade school and participants will travel along South Bend’s scenic east bank trail north to Holy Cross College and back. Each participant will receive a long sleeve tech style shirt.
You must sign up by Friday, November 15 to be guaranteed a shirt!
