About the race

Jingle All the Way: A Merry Christmas Run is a holiday run that celebrates spreading love, giving selflessly and enjoying togetherness with family, friends and strangers, before the Christmas festivities.

The run is a smaller, private group run with a cap per wave, and it sells out quickly. When a wave fills, it closes.

All paces and ages are welcome, and you can run or walk. There is no equipment or setup; the run is led by coordinators in a warm, stress-free setting.

What you get (swag bag)

  • Running T-shirt, shipped to the address you register with (US only)
  • Finisher's towel or giveaway
  • Finisher's medal
  • Digital training pack

Timing

  • Timing is optional: track your time on an app (Strava, RunKeeper, Nike Run, etc.) and submit it with the easy form to be posted online.
  • Or ask our coordinators to help keep track of your time.
  • No timing chips.

Packet pickup and bibs

No packet pickup is required. Swag is shipped directly to your address, so provide your full, correct US mailing address including apartment number and check the spelling.

Race bibs are provided on race day.

Swag delivery and race updates

You will receive your shirt at your mailing address the week of your race.

A final update with final details and course maps will be emailed the Wednesday before the race.

Late registration

Late registrations are accepted (for those signing up 2 weeks before the race). Your shirt will likely arrive after the run, so you can wear any shirt you find appropriate to run the race.

Email us your desired wave time at [email protected]. Waves are filled on a first come, first served basis.

  • Wave A: 7:30 AM
  • Wave B: 8:00 AM

Virtual run option

The virtual run includes a training pack with digital tools to support your run. It can be done any time and place of your choosing, using any tracking device (optional).

After you finish, submit your results to [email protected] to receive your medal.
