The Merry Mile

Ring in the New Year with warmth and community at The Merry Mile, a relaxed social run and celebration hosted by The Run Parlour Clinton on Saturday, January 17, 2026, at the Benmiller Community Hall. This post-holiday "Shake Out Run" invites participants of all ages and paces to enjoy a stroller-accessible, non-competitive mile starting at 6:15 PM, followed by a lively indoor party with live music, refreshments, and prizes from 6:45 to 9:00 PM. All proceeds directly support the Huron Heart to Home program, with a new team fundraising challenge adding a layer of friendly rivalry for run clubs, families, and groups to win prizes and bragging rights.

More than just a run, this January 17th event is a heartwarming, family-friendly gathering designed to start the year with connection and purpose, regardless of the winter weather. It's the perfect way to ease back into movement, celebrate with friends, and contribute to a vital local cause, embodying the true spirit of a merry and meaningful new beginning.
