About the Event

UGLY SWEATER 5K, presented by Tito's Handmade Vodka
Saturday, December 13, 2025 • 9:00 AM • Backyard Brewery • Manchester, NH

Your registration can include:
• Official Tito's Ugly Sweater (First 50 registrants guaranteed, then 50 raffled off to anyone who registers on Tuesday 9/3)
• Commemorative Race Medal
• Event T-Shirt (FREE before 11/24, can be added on for $10 after 11/24)

It's time to dig out those ugly sweaters and join us for your favorite holiday-themed race of the year, the 10th Annual Ugly Sweater Run, presented by Tito's Handmade Vodka! 100% of race proceeds will go to benefit three local animal rescue groups; the Humane Society of Greater Nashua, New Hampshire SPCA, and the Monadnock Humane Society.

This 21+ event is one that is not to miss and will include: holiday fun, great four-mile course, post-race party, music, drinks & more!

Please note that this is a 21+ event. No runners under the age of 21 will be allowed on course. Due to the New England weather this is also a rain, snow, or shine event.

A MESSAGE ABOUT THIS YEAR'S EVENT:

We originally planned to bring you another festive 4-Miler, and were deep in planning for that, but with recent changes from the City of Manchester about updates to road access for parades and events, we had to reimagine our course. The result? A brand-new, approved Ugly Sweater 5K starting and finishing at our favorite spot — Backyard Brewery! 🍻

It may be a little shorter this year, but it’s bigger than ever in holiday cheer! If your friends or family thought 4 miles was a stretch, tell them to grab their sweaters and join the 5K fun on December 13!
