About the event

Get ready for a holiday race with a playful twist! Welcome to the White Elephant 5K/10K—the event inspired by everyone’s favorite gift-swapping tradition, where surprises, silliness, and a little friendly chaos make the fun. Just like the classic holiday game, this race celebrates the joy of “re-gifting,” transforming leftover treasures into unforgettable memories.

Athletes will select their preferred shirt size at registration, but the actual shirt remains a mystery until after the race. When you cross the finish line, you’ll unwrap your very own surprise bundle—a race shirt and finisher medal from a previous event, packaged White Elephant–style for a fun and festive reveal.

We'll be dashing along the Duke Energy Trail starting at 9:00 am.

In addition to the post-race surprises, we’ll honor performance in the traditional way with awards to the top three male and female finishers in five-year age groups, beginning with 10 & under and continuing through our most experienced participants.

With distances for every level—a festive 5K and a spirited 10K—the White Elephant Run is the perfect way to celebrate the season with humor, heart, and holiday cheer.

Welcome to the White Elephant 5K/10K—unwrap the fun, embrace the unexpected, and enjoy every mile of this joyful holiday tradition!
