About the Event

Grab the family and celebrate Christmas Eve morning by joining us for the White Elephant Christmas 5K! We'll be running at Etowah River Park starting at 8:30 am.

Come dressed in your best/ugliest Christmas costume and enjoy the Christmas season with us. Our White Elephant "Gift" to you will be swag from a prior race! You just let us know what size, and you'll have a surprise. Shirts & Finisher awards in the true White Elephant Fashion. We'll have your "gift" wrapped and ready for you after you cross the finish line! In the spirit of giving, we'll even have a white elephant finisher medal for all participants! =) So come out and join us for some festive fun! We hope to see you and your family, friends, neighbors, etc. there!

Awards? Of course we have awards. Overalls & age groups (these will be custom to the White Elephant event).
