Bad Santa 5K
About the race
Come naughty, come nice to the Bad Santa 5K on December 20th! This timed run through Carondelet Park celebrates the Holiday Season the right way.
The course will feature stunning winter scenes with plenty of lakes, woods and railroad tracks to explore, perfect for seasoned and casual runners alike.
We are also collecting new and gently used winter coats, hats and gloves to benefit the Kurt Warner First Things First Foundation and Warners' Warm-Up Coat Drive, keeping our neighbors warm during the cold winter months.
Post-race party
Grab warm drinks from Beans Please before the race. After the race, warm up by joining us at Urban Chestnut's Bierhall for the Bad Santa after party, where the first drink is on the house for Bad Santas.
